What to do with the pots and pans I no longer use?
It’s because we have too many, or because they’re no longer non-stick. Because the handles are broken, or simply because we’re looking for new ones.
The pieces on display are made from wasted materials, but also butts and even trash associated with the pandemic, such as masks and tests.
Bordalo II presents “Evilution”, his new solo exhibition, at Edu Hub Lisbon. The exhibition is a kind of retrospective, which includes works already known, but also three new series.
In this exhibition, and as has been usual in the work of this Portuguese artist, materials considered waste are used to draw attention to important causes.
To the magazine“Visão“, Bordalo II explains the name of the exhibition: “Evilution”. “The name is a duality between what is the evolution of my work and the evolution of humanity (…). It seems that we have been going backwards. Things that seemed obvious – the right to difference, abortion… – are again the subject of discussion. It leads me to believe that we take nothing for granted. It’s a contrarian evolution.”
The materials used range from plastic and metal waste, to wood and stone waste. He also used cigarette butts, but also waste that we associate with the last pandemic years: gloves, masks,
syringes and even tests.
The exhibition is on display from October 8 through December 11, from 2 pm to 8 pm (last entry at 7 pm), Wednesday through Sunday. Admission is free.
