In this exhibition, the Brazilian artist Prozak presents prints and paintings in mixed media on paper, continuing his research on transparencies and overlays, exploring the levels of saturation and contrast between colors, and the reaction between the materials used.
These peculiar portraits, almost abstracts, contain multiple faces, skulls and masks mixed with expressions of euphoria, joy, anger, sadness and frustration, are a metaphor for the precarious balance of the human mind, and question the boundaries between the various layers of human emotion and complete insanity.
São Paulo is an epicentre for graffiti artists, and Mazu Prozak is one of the most prolific and influential Paulistan graffiti artists of his generation.
