Cadu, PIPA Prize 2013 winner, takes his proposals to the extreme. Known for his unconventional methods, his practice deals with the creation of systems: machines, installations, paintings, drawings and sculptures, often incorporating elements of nature and, while pushing the boundaries between man and landscape, involving his own personal experiences. In this exclusive talk with the Curator of PIPA Institute, Luiz Camillo Osorio, the artist discusses his creative process, influences, techniques, motivations and Cadu’s most recent projects.

“ALLOY ALLOY”, Adriano Amaral’s first institutional solo exhibition

(Bielefeld, Germany) In his first institutional solo exhibition, PIPA 2015 nominee Adriano Amaral presents exclusive new works, which search for unexpected connections between humans, materials and architecture. The entire ground floor of Bielefelder Kunstverein becomes an obstacle course made up of rather smaller sculptures, architectural interventions and changes in the space itself. Materials and objects like shoes, bones, oxygen cylinders, silicone, amongst others, constitute a formal point of departure for the show, in an artistic practice marked by the usage of things from the artist’s immediate surroundings.
