Marcelo Costa

UNTITLED, 2005

The set of drawings that Marcelo Costa presented for competition form a small part of a major series that is still ongoing and which emerges from the need for the continued and exhaustive practice of drawing. The erotic theme arises as the idea of the body that is being created, conceived and of the relationships and tensions (or sensations) that are established in that body between drawing and painting: the lust and warmth of painting versus the cold, synthetic nature of drawing.
