Marcos Simoes
Marcos Simoes (PT/BE) has been creating performances and videos since 2002 by himself or in collaboration with other artists. The body is the material of the work of Marcos Simoes , in his performances he uses different mediums: sound, video, drawing, image, objects and textile to create situations and contexts where he explores modes of relation and communication other than language to question ways of thinking and doing.
What are the spaces in between the things? Between sensations and language? How to express the inexpressible? Thinking the artist as a medium, a catalyser, Marcos’ performances are rites of relations, in the form of hybrid objects between the visual and the performative. It is in the power of relating things that change and transformation can occur.
