Hum Studio & Gallery presents
Martinho Pita and Vasco Fragoso Mendes

Exploring the intersection between the new body of work by Martinho Pita and Vasco Fragoso Mendes.

Contamination induces a reaction in something, which can be witnessed in the life cycle of wood and glass. Light and shadow intersect, speaking through the objects and challenging more conventional perceptions. The colour palette harmonizes the ambiance, punctuated by textiles created from scratch.

The mark of the glass can be found in wood.
Wood enables glass to be blown.
Both are created and recreated by destructive methods such as burning, scraping, and sculpting, aiming to reflect the permanent and symbiotic nature of design.
