Cristina Ataíde
Cristina Ataíde was born in 1956 and is a Portuguese artist. She holds a degree in Sculpture from the Lisbon School of Fine Arts.
She was the Production Director of Sculpture and Design at Madein, Alenquer, from 1987 to 1996, where she collaborated with artists such as Anish Kapoor, Michelangelo Pistolleto, Keit Sonnier, Matt Mullican, among others. She was a guest professor at Lusófona University in Lisbon from 1997 to 2012.
She has been exhibiting regularly since 1984, with large installations and site-specific works occupying a significant place in her exhibitions. Her artwork, often created while traveling, transitions between sculpture and drawing, incorporating photography and video. Concerns about nature and its preservation are a constant theme in her work and research.
She is represented by the following galleries: Galeria Belo-Galsterer (Lisbon), Andrea Rehder Arte Contemporânea (São Paulo), Galeria Ybakatu (Curitiba), Galeria Quattro (Leiria), and Galeria Magda Bellotti (Madrid).
About this work
This print presents abstract and poetic characteristics. It combines graphic and pictorial elements, using watercolor techniques and linear strokes reminiscent of organic forms, such as branches or roots. The background consists of diffuse stains in warm tones, such as red, pink, and yellow, creating a fluid and atmospheric texture.
Superimposed on the stains are thin lines forming a kind of grid or geometric structure. These lines are filled with handwritten inscriptions in red, which appear to be fragments of text or poetry, contributing to the lyrical character of the work. The darker strokes, resembling dry branches, contrast with the vibrant background and add a sense of depth.
The piece suggests a dialogue between nature and human expression, balancing chaos and order. The silkscreen print explores themes such as fragility, organicity, and introspection, standing out for its sensitive and contemplative approach.
Note – This reproduction is printed on 400gsm 100% cotton canvas, identical to what painters use, so it resembles an original work of art. The prints are made using the Giclée process, which creates gallery-quality works.
