2009 - First meeting

The dialogue with Brazilian modernism stems from the recognition of a language that transformed the way identity, territory, and culture are represented.

In this interpretation, elements originally associated with modernism are displaced into Di Fêrra's visual universe, where they coexist with new chromatic structures, graphic rhythms, and spatial relationships.

The objective is not to return to the past, but to allow different moments in Brazilian art to meet in a new visual construction.

2026 - A new perspective

In 2009, the first dialogue with one of the most striking images in Brazilian art was born. The work leaves the traditional surface of painting and gains new layers through cutouts in wood, reliefs, and fragments of fabric.

More than reinterpreting an image, the process sought to understand how memory, matter, and construction could transform a historical reference into a new visual experience.

Seventeen years later, the dialogue returns.

The reference remains, but the perspective is no longer the same.

The new work carries the paths traveled: new structures, new layers, and a language built over the years.
