Amazonia - There is perhaps no place on our planet that is more spiritual than the Amazon rainforest. During his artist residency at LABVERDE, an art immersion program in the Brazilian Amazon, Paul Cupido picked up his camera and began a silent dialogue with this enchanting and mystical environment, focusing on leaves, foliage, water, and the moon. His photographic work is articulated around the principle of mu, a philosophical concept open to countless interpretations. Mu can be considered a void, albeit one that holds potential. With “Amazônia,” he explores the ephemeral and symbolic correspondences between the body and the earth; text by Hugo Fernando Salinas Fortes Júnior.
