Curvilinear shapes swirl across this canvas in frank abstraction. Yet, in the center of the painting, a realistic landscape appears beneath a yellow sky. Just below the roiling clouds, rugged peaks thrust upward and a narrow path winds through verdant pastures. 'When the portal between worlds opens, we liberate the emotions. At that exact moment, we no longer have control because the dimensional veil between the worlds is removed. It alters our perceptions,' artist Mendes Ferreira explains. This work forms part of his series 'Windows of the Soul.'
Titled 'Portal entre os mundos' in Portuguese.
