In Brincadeiras, everything I work on comes together on different levels” José Gomes explains. His work is to be understood as an exploration of nature, or as a motif and a search for the motifs of nature. To this end, José Gomes links photography and drawing, more specifically aerial cartographic views linked to geometric shapes drawn with pencil. He then operates a total association between elements derived from wood, through the raw material for support, paper for his photographic prints, and graphite for his drawings.
