Carla Filipe
RAR Collection 2007
Carla Filipe is one of the most singular artists in Portugal's current artistic panorama. Far removed from convenient formalism that unashamedly runs through a significant portion of contemporary creation, she has developed an activity anchored in drawing - where her visually and conceptually robust projects are underpinned by various types of reminiscences.
Although Carla Filipe also works directly with three-dimensional works space, her most familiar terrain, as state above, is drawing - which she mixes together with writing in a kind of uninterrupted stream of consciousness. (Miguel von Hafe Pérez)
