Thiago Rocha Pitta by Botika. Thiago Rocha Pitta, Uma Trilogia (Trilogy; detail), 2007, Vale do Anhangabaå, Såo Paulo. All images courtesy of the artist. The works of Thiago Rocha Pitta suggest naturally diverse movements and transformations. Independent of the surface he chooses to use, everything happens uninterruptedly. Even in his paintings, where the pigments are immobilized on the canvas, one observes the expression of a natural process under way, as in, for example, the illustration of smoke (a result of fire) going up toward the sky, or a cloud toward the earth. There’s no need to tell a story. Thiago Rocha Pitta, Youth, 2006, mixed media and performance, Singapore Biennial, Tanglin Camp. Rocha Pitta’s work expresses an enormous force of freedom from the moment that each individual transformation becomes, overall, the gigantic lack of limitation imposed by nature.

Thiago Rocha Pitta, Uma Trilogia (Trilogy; detail), 2007, Vale do Anhangabå, Såo Paulo. Translated by Yv Maciel. Tags: Translation Nature Environment. Cezary Bodzianowski | Zero. CHIMERA Q.T.E. Sunday, 30 December 2012 Curated by Attilia Fattori Franchini Works by Cornelia Baltes, Nicolas Deshayes, Adham Faramawy, Jack Lavender, Berry Patten, Sabrina Ratté, Travess Smalley, Oliver Sutherland Chimera Q.T.E. works as a proposition on different levels. It celebrates chaos and the order that comes out of it. We are increasingly related to fragmentation and constantly exposed to information, images, ideas. The form of representation which the exhibition lays on is dynamic and non-linear, it calls for the same type of reception. C e l l Pr o j e c t S p a c e. Chimera Q.T.E. | Cell Project Space. Private View 15th November, 2012 6-9pm 16th November 2012 -17th January 2013 Friday-Sunday 12-6pm Seasonal closure from December 17th 2012 -January 3rd, 2013 According to Greek mythology, the Chimera was a monstrous fire-breathing female creature composed of the parts of three animals: a lion, a serpent and a goat.

In popular culture the term has been used to describe any fictional being composed by different parts as well as to describe illusory ideas and actions. This exhibition celebrates cacophony and material-crossing whilst floating between physicality and significance, to consider alternative forms of artistic expression looking at a context-based sensoriality as opposed to direct representation.

The exhibition is accompanied by an online pdf publication with contributions by Rhys Coren, Marialaura Ghidini, Arcadia Missa & Paolo Ruffino and a series of events.

Not unlike William Kentridge’s work it is based on the artists own accomplished drawings, which are brought to life with the camera. Acevedo’s distinctive figures tell the artist’s own parables of society and the human condition. Gabriel Acevdo Velarde ( * 1976, Lima, Peru) lives and works in Mexico City and Sao Paolo.
