The “Seed Landscape” series is an extension of previous processes in which the artist deepens the relationship with color and the amplitude of the landscape that was revealed in her relationship with Serra do Cipó: a place in the Minas Gerais savannah with its mountains, erosions and unique presence of nocturnal mysteries, rocks, plants and varied natural elements: an inventory of universes and species that explode, branching out in an infinite cataloging, generating its own visual syntax with chromatic vibration that houses tones and nuances of plants, mountains, rocks, ships, a rocky landscape, mini-planets in the distance and on the ground, the horizon, the sky and the lowlands sheltered in the logic of detail.

Biography

Gisele Camargo - Carbono Galeria

Gisele Camargo

b. 1970, Rio de Janeiro (RJ), Brazil | Lives and works in Serra do Cipó (MG), Brazil.

Gisele Camargo has a degree in Visual Arts from the School of Fine Arts at UFRJ, a degree she completed in parallel with her philosophy studies. While living in Rio de Janeiro, her work presented landscapes that referred to the urban universe, with a restricted palette, such as the series “Panavison” 2009, “33 triptychs” 2010 and “Falsa Espera” 2012. The latter was recorded in a book.

In March 2017, the artist moved to Serra do Cipó, a change that was reflected in her work when the rudiments of an organic landscape opened the color palette and added symbolic elements to the paintings. These characteristics can be observed in the development of the series “Brutos” 2016, “Paisagens Gráficas” 2017, “Erosões” 2018, “Construção” 2018, “Tabuleiro” 2020.
