TILING DRAWS  (Videomapping)


  • Place: Palácio Nacional de Sintra

Inspired by the pictorial language of Portuguese artists such as Zé Penicheiro with his volumetric cartoons, Amadeo de Souza-Cardoso and the aggressive and lively style of forms and colours; or the great compositions of Maria Helena Vieira da Silva, Desilence combines an original colour palette from cubism and abstract art, also benefiting from the inspiration offered by the wonderful tiles in the interior of the Palácio Nacional da Vila, with its various textures and compositions. 


DESILENCE


The Desilence acronym is the code word to identify the multidisciplinary duo composed by Tatiana Halbach and Søren Christensen. This couple form one of the most referenced teams in the Barcelona visual arts system. Working from Barcelona, in the heart of the city, for more than a decade, the imagination of both artists has been captured in a wide range of contexts, from music to fashion and theatre. Thanks to all their work Desilence is in the epicentre of the cultural events in Barcelona. Not knowing boundaries their visual arts are open to a wide range of specialities where shapes, textures and colours form an indivisible combination that becomes their signature and handwriting. The perfect blend between the passion for the research and the technical balance plus a fierce working diligence has turned into collaborations with some of the strongest sponsors in the field, allowing them not only to land in international festivals but also to collaborate in the art direction of successful theater plays or to project their vitality in dozens of different scenes where the music was the prevailing note.
