Landscapes & Ashes.
For the Climatopia exhibtion, Domingos Tótora used a charcoal pigment ( graphite) on his pieces, representing
the ashes from the Amazon fires and deforestation. The artist intends to portray the
duality of contemplation of beauty on a vivid landscape, in contrast to an excruciating
silence of a scorched nature.
In the artist’s words:
“Terra queimada. Terra de cinzas” (Burned Earth. Ashes of a Landscape).
