Isabelle Borges Returns to São Paulo with Synthetic Fields at Galeria Emmathomas

Isabelle Borges, an artist based in Berlin, showcases her solo exhibition Campos Sintéticos at Galeria Emmathomas in São Paulo, under the curation of Ricardo Resende. This marks her return following her 2013 exhibition Seta do Tempo at MUBE. Having lived in Berlin for twenty years, Borges enhances the medium of painting with spatial interventions, collages, and objects, drawing inspiration from both Brazilian and German artistic heritages, especially Concretism. This movement, which flourished in the 1960s with Max Bill at the Ulm School of Design, influenced Brazilian artists like Lygia Clark and Amilcar de Castro. In Campos Sintéticos, attendees encounter a temporary spatial intervention that complements the paintings, incorporating themes from Jorge Luis Borges's The Garden of Forking Paths.
