FORMS OF ASCENSIONALITY

The artistic space of Óscar Alves is composed of ascensional forms, whether they be angels that subvert and enchant the blue space, the color par excellence of imagination and escapism, or trees that symbolize the connection between various cosmic levels. In this dreamlike space, the tree becomes the privileged icon of dialogue and the relationship between the natural and the supernatural.
