Essa série de trabalhos busca falar de uma tentativa ao mesmo tempo possível e impossível de juntar, de estar junto. Fala do limite aberto entre dentro e fora, do que é visível e invisível e de uma continuação do gesto do corpo na paisagem. Cada um desses trabalhos propõe um diálogo específico com paisagem, levando sua poética para diferentes lugares. “Nas suas diferentes costuras, a linha que divide o espaço também define uma presença multiplicadora. Elas abrem uma outra superfície — ao mesmo tempo cerzida e cindida — que libera nosso limite móvel entre um dentro e um fora da existência. A linha costurada rasura nossos limites entre alto e baixo, entre sobre e sub, entre a vida e a morte. Como se o ato de atar o solo atasse, também, planos
de existência. Nessa operação, costurar os espaços em que pisamos faz com que eles se tornem expostos. Entre a linha que costura e a linha que forma o horizonte infinito do chão, se instala a espiral metafísica entre mundos. A linha branca que atravessa a pele mutante da areia (Notas sobre o limite do mar) forma uma trança de planos e tempos — entre o que junta e o que nunca permanecerá junto.”
Frederico Coelho (2018) - http://marialaet.com/textos/poro/

This series of works speaks of a both possible and impossible attempt to join, to be together. It speaks of the open limit between inside and outside, of what is visible and invisible and of a continuation of the gesture, of the body, in the landscape. Each one of the these works has a different dialogue to the landscape, taking their poetics to different places. “In its different weavings, the line that divides space also defines a multiplying presence. They open up another surface — at once mended and torn — that releases our moving boundary between an inside and an outside of existence. The stitched line erases our boundaries between high and low, between over and under, between life and death. It is as if the act of binding the ground also bound planes of existence. In this operation, sewing the spaces we step on makes them become exposed. Between the line that sews and the one that forms the ground’s infinite horizon, the metaphysical spiral between worlds settles in. The white line that crosses the sand’s mutant skin (Notes on the Sea’s Limit) forms a braid of planes and times — between what joins and what will never remain joined”.
