Jorge Vieira

The person speaking here about Jorge Vieira's sculpture is not a critic of visual arts. In what is relevant here, he should be considered a man of literary pursuits, nevertheless interested in the diversity of modes of representation—re/production of our multifaceted reality and that of the world.

The presence of manual gesture, the strength and delicacy, the liberated sensuality and the work that makes it practically rigorous; all this gives a sensation of earthly joy.

The creation of these sculptures in these dimensions generates, in turn, a feeling of familiarity with an imaginary world that is nevertheless "strange," which means that our senses are awakened, sharpened, and enriched by the vision of these objects.

And therefore, this sculpture, like all living art, provides the pleasure that comes from our senses vibrating and our imagination being set in motion by the work of another.
