CUNHA, Eduardo Vieira da. Amélia Brandelli and the absorption and transformation of drawing: a dialogue with plant life in “winter, almost winter”. []. , 11, 29, pp.60-65. 31--2020. ISSN 1647-6158.
This article deals with Amelia Brandelli’s 2019 series of drawings, “Winter, almost winter”, where the Brazilian artist proposes a relationship between the look and the real, and about the nobility that has been lost by nature. In these plant drawings, she establishes a play of light and dark that bathes the foliage, and which seems analogous to the behavior of a sensitive plate, but which becomes transformed when manipulated in the drawing. The artist’s gesture translates as an attempt to break with the mourning of the image.
