EMOTIONAL LANDSCAPE: A CRITICAL ANALYSIS
Paulo Arraiano (1977), with a dual background in fine arts (Arco) and Communication (ISCEM), and with an extensive curriculum of international exhibitions since 2007, is another artist with a connection to Street Art who is already established in Portugal. As his name suggests - "raia" meaning border - he finds himself on a fluid margin between the world of nature and a chaotic and overwhelming urban reality that is present in his murals. In his paintings and installations, a different reality, cosmic and inaugural, asserts itself, following the interrogation of the limits of matter and "non-matter" that he explored in a collective exhibition in 2017. This serigraphy is part of the series of "emotional landscapes", titled "Magma", which is also the name of an impactful mural he created. In this artwork, the vertiginous movement, the colorful warm and cool tones in violent contrasts, enhanced by the flow of blacks and whites, are associated with the representation of a cosmic and primitive energy. An energy capable of giving new life to a society that has forgotten its deepest emotional and mythical aspects, rooted in a solar and cosmic nature.
