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,

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.
