“One of the most important elements of Caio-ness I wanted to keep was that left to right reading, where one form draws you... this movement in what is otherwise a fairly still art, that sense of pulling the eye. It involves a sense of time. To me that's esoteric and magical and playful, and if a painting doesn't have that, to me it's just canvas and paint. If it does have that, then it rises above its materials.” ArtImportantEyeReadingPaintingPaintCanvasRise AboveRise Above It Author:Caio Fonseca
“I'm not particularly interested in painting, per se. I'm interested in a painting that has that mysterious life to it. Anything that doesn't partake of that magic is halfway dead - it returns to its physical elements, it's just paint and canvas.” MagicPaintingReturnElementsPaintMysteriousCanvasHalfwayMysterious Life Author:Caio Fonseca
