Scar.

Collection curated by Helena Mendes Pereira

“Scar.” is, I won’t say the first, but perhaps the most important and representative solo exhibition by Sandra Baía (b.1968) because it gives her recent artistic production a reading hypothesis that frames it, not in the great question of “What is Art?”, but rather in Eco’s question, “What is Beauty in the 21st century?”. The reflection is urgent and is not without its contradictions because, at the same time, never before have we lived in a time of such profound advocacy for rights, freedoms and guarantees, with individual choices and the construction of fairness as essential vectors.
