Senise's work brings the remains of a childhood narrative combined with a concept of absence. His father was a pilot for Panair do Brasil and during his countless flights he had the habit of photographing clouds and their atmospheric architectures that are now part of a photo collection. During an airlift, he had his father's negative with him, which was aligned with his photograph, acquiring a simultaneous existence. The work brings the tone of memory, retaining a suspended time, impregnated by the remains of a paternal memory, by storing intimate meanings in the silent tumult of temporality.
Biography
Daniel Senise
Senise's research is mainly based on painting, but the artist also creates photographs, engravings and installations. The artist began his career at the Escola de Artes Visuais do Parque Laje, where he participated in the famous "Como vai você, geração 80?".
His work has been featured in three editions of the São Paulo International Biennial, in 1985, 1989 and 1998; in the Havana Biennial in Cuba; in the Venice Biennial, among others. Other notable exhibitions include the Centre Georges Pompidou, the Ludwig Museum and the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA). His work is also part of important public collections around the world, such as the Brooklyn Museum and the Museum of Latin American Art (MOLAA), both in the USA; the Stedelijk Museum, the Netherlands; and the Museums of Modern Art (MAM) in Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo.
Senise’s work is directly related to the processes of production and their implications. Senise’s research is mainly based on painting, but the artist also creates photographs, prints and installations. His interest in matter and memory is a key element: in one of his best-known series, Senise transfers the image of the studio floor through the residues that print their texture directly onto the surface of the canvas. Wear and tear and marks caused by the passage of time and references to the history of art are also frequent operations – from this vocabulary, new meanings can be attributed to the act of painting or the construction of images.
Agnaldo Farias draws attention to the fact that the artist thinks of his work based on “Images taken from an old and revered canvas, or not, taken from some other place, an ordinary source, the kind that, in principle, we see with indifference. Images with a univocal meaning or that expand in the face of the work of the imagination of the one who contemplates them, as a source of proliferation of meanings.” And he adds that Senise thinks of his work as a source of proliferation of meanings.
