Through the portrait, expressionist mention and dramatic figuration, almost baroque, the artist cherishes the pain and hurts with the accuracy of the trace with which accentuates wrinkles, imperfections, odes to the beautiful, details and measures that make each represented become more than a painting, they become life... In my first contacts with the work of Do Carmo Vieira, I felt the combat, impossible and obsessive, for the love of the portrayed, whose capture starts from the spontaneous, directing itself to the balance of (apparent) error with the search for the truth of the entrails. Whether tears or smiles Do Carmo Vieira has the gift to capture and perpetuate the truth and unconsciousness of each one, through the sagacious beauty of the nakedness of the soul, never poor, always rich.
