In the shape of a cube, the alabaster sculpture has part of its volume reduced in its cylindrical shape. This stands out due to its gold leaf coating, also enhancing the organic nature of the stone and the natural mix of colors. Through the opening, the light shines and radiates, also creating interesting shadows around the object, in shades of gray and gold. In each edition, the golden cylinder is made in a different position, reinforcing the uniqueness of the pieces.

Biography

Maria-Carmen Perlingeiro - Carbono Galeria

Maria-Carmen Perlingeiro

b. 1952, Rio de Janeiro (RJ), Brazil | Lives and works in Geneva, Switzerland.

Maria-Carmen studied at the School of Fine Arts at UFRJ, but graduated from the École Supérieure d'Art Visuel. The sculptor also studied in New York and when she visited Sérgio Camargo's studio she discovered the sculptural possibilities of marble. However, the raw material of her choice was Tuscan alabaster, which has a transparency permeated by spots and waves.

In the 1990s, he won the Darier Hentsch & Cie Bank Prize in Geneva, competing with 249 artists from around the world. His collective and individual exhibitions have taken his works to countries such as Brazil, France, Switzerland and Italy. He participated in the 13th and 14th editions of the São Paulo Biennial.
