Felipe Rezende | DOSSIER 31st YOUTH ART EXHIBITION
Group Exhibition
Felipe Rezende’s work is a fascinating fusion of the everyday and the absurd, incorporating elements from his personal experiences and observations. Using found materials as support, he creates paintings, drawings, and installations that challenge conventional perception. His recent series with worn truck tarps explores themes such as work journeys, class struggle, and social inequalities, without neglecting moments of rest and dreams. In “From Guts to Clouds,” Rezende uses a red boat as a metaphor for “escape,” not in the sense of fleeing, but of transforming reality, creating a surreal fishing scene with contrasting and unexpected elements.

His art invites the viewer to rethink the relationships between the individual and the environment, the real and the imaginary, challenging conventional perceptions and stimulating new ways of seeing and interpreting the world around us.
