We were looking for a particular sculptor the other day (whom we still have not found) and inadvertently discovered the work of
Henrique Oliveira. His
Tridimensionals sculptural installations astounded us. Plywood and mixed media constructs that are seemingly caught in the moment of ripping or bulging apart, reference both man made and natural entities. We've rediscovered, or maybe reexamined, our familiarity with everyday materials through Oliveira's work. Here's a peek:
