Title
MOTTA & LIMA
Description
“Of the many tasks that art has taken for itself in the history of mankind, one of the most persistent has been the making of representations of parcels of the world. Today, when not all art represents something and not everything that represents something is art, a work like that of Gisela Motta and Leandro Lima offers elaborate emulations of the real, be it with the most advanced or the simplest of technologies. The fundamental thing for artists is not to create replicas or simulations identical to the real, but to produce concrete systems that work in equivalent way to the phenomena that interest them” – Excerpt from “Contando ovelhas elétricas”, by Paulo Miyada.
The partnership between Gisela Motta and Leandro Lima (both born in São Paulo, Brazil, 1976) began in the late 1990s.
