AS IN HEAVEN, SO ON EARTH by RITA CALDO at GALERIA MUNICIPAL DO PORTO curated by PATRÍCIA COELHO [from 20241026 to 20250303]

[YYYYMMDD SELECTED]

As in heaven, so on earth invites us to wander and discover Rita Caldo’s visual universe, where different sculptural compositions inhabit a maze-like, strange and magical microcosm. These various characters, who follow her delusions in non-linear narratives, are now presented in an exhibition format, transforming the white cube into a box of dreams.
 
Rita Caldo’s artistic practice explores how space and figuration create an imaginary place. Using hand sewing and small-scale ceramic painting, the artist presents masks, sculptures and other figurative distortions. With references to circus spectacle and the aesthetics of exaggeration, the exhibition reflects on the linguistic abyss that exists between the world we know and the one we fantasize about.
