Sublimação

Série: A Carta Mágica

Impressão em tecido

---

O texto da carta foi refilado e retirado. Somente palavras carregadas de significado de cunho religioso (fé, Deus e Jesus) foram mantidas.
Na aproximação destas letras ou partes remanescentes se desvenda o não-texto e o fantasmático. O corpo da escrita linear desfoca, assim, novos conteúdos sensoriais, não capturados pela linguagem, aparecem.
O espectador à distância lê a palavra, mas ao se aproximar vê a forma borrada se transformar em manchas disformes e espectrais.

Sublimation consists of manipulating the content of a psychographed letter. Contradictory to the act of writing, the psychography was done by an illiterate woman from the 1930s. At that time and place, women could not have any access to studies. In the letter's content, words loaded with religious significance (faith, God and Jesus) were kept.In the approach of these letters and remaining parts, the non-text and the phantasmatic are revealed. The body of text blurs, appearing new sensory and visual contents, not captured by language. At the exhibition installation, the viewer at a distance reads the word, but as he gets closer he sees the blurred shape transform into misshapen and spectral spots. The impression of the spots in translucent and light fabric is made by the process of endothermic sublimation that transmutes a gaseous to a solid state.
