Galeria Nuno Centeno is pleased to present, at The Cave Project Space: do subterrâneo, a project by visual artists Carla Cruz and Cláudia Lopes.

(…) when the waste and sediment have told us all their memories about the making and unmaking of the world, new alliances between different forms of life will come to establish a joint future. A future that is already present because we speculate, imagine and are building it together.

– Excerpt from the text Medula (TOBOSO, Juan Luis, March 2023)

Since 2020, Carla Cruz & Claudia Lopes have been developing joint reflections on issues such as: marks, fragments, sedimentations, natural, constructed, transformed and fictionalized landscapes, crossed temporalities, post-humanities, circularity, ends of the world and other speculative prefigurations. These are both plastic and conceptual explorations. A mutual interest in moldable and organic materials, non-urban territories and intuitive tactics of artistic creation. Their practice is revealed through drawing, video, performance, sculpture and installation. They currently focus their artistic practice on territories in the north of Portugal, where extractivism has transformed landscapes and beings, in a political-poetic approach.
