“영감은 영화, 책, 역사적 사건, 예상치 못한 장소, 혹은 일상적 공간 등 수많은 곳에서 얻을 수 있다. 조르주 페렉의 과정에 대해 탐구한 이후, 나는 내 언어를 분류하고 표현하는 데 있어 좀더 체계적인 방법을 찾는 데 몰두했다.”
- 2021, 라파 실바레스와 데이비드 알라르꼰 (David Alarcón), 메탈 매거진 중
라파 실바레스(b.1984, 브라질 산토스)는 베를린에서 거주하며 작업하고 있다. 그는 브라질 상파울루의 아르만도 알바레스 펜치아두 대학(Fundação Armando Alvares Penteado)에서 순수미술 학위를 취득했으며, FFLCH 대학(FFLCH University of São Paulo)에서 언어 및 문학을 전공했다. 실바레스는 현대 도시에서 익숙하게 관찰될 수 있는 것에 관심을 가지며, 불붙은 프라이팬이나 물 튼 수도꼭지, 김을 뿜는 파이프와 같은 무생물의 움직임을 작품의 주제로 한다. 산업화된 일상의 삭막함은 생동감 넘치는 색과 부드러운 그라데이션이 더해져 유쾌하고 매력적인 분위기로 탈바꿈한다. 딱딱하고 차가울 것만 같은 금속, 플라스틱 등 산업 소재의 질감도 그의 그림 속에서는 유려하고 부드럽게 표현된다. 화면을 채우는 구조적이며 건축적인 형상들은 간결하면서도 풍부하고, 캔버스 표면의 공간적 특성에 관한 탐구를 가능케 한다.
