BRUNO CASTRO SANTOS | Derivation “(the drawings) ...carry, from architecture, some of their central attributes, but here, they are subject to subtle operations of neutralization and attenuation - as is done with viruses, for the production of vaccines. In other words, precise relations can be identified with the practice and design of architecture, but it is as if they have undergone irreversible mutations, and are now mere cocoons that carry echoes or phantoms of their original contents.” Philip Cabau “Derivation #8”, 2017 Gouache and pigment pen on paper 76x56cm Private collection “Derivation #10”, 2017 Gouache and pigment pen on paper 76x56cm Private collection
