In a purified language, the artist plastically reinvents the geometric tear, associating to it fragments of uniform
colour, similar to the manner of collages, that work asan emotional substrate to pictorial space. Recurring to a
rigorous methodology of constructive features – in fact in line with his sculpture “A Janela” installed at the Tra-
vessa dos Inglesinhos, in Bairro Alto, Lisbon – Manuel Carmo achieves, through extremely synthetic geometries,
a considerable experience of the symbol.
The rhythms that the straight and curved lines create on the canvas and their counterpoint with the chromatic backgrounds establish an essentialist solar poetic.
