Jeane Terra

Jeane Terra researches the subjectivity of memory, the nuances of the transience of cities, and the debris of a time, such as urban erasure, the unbridled growth of cities and environmental issues. The artist’s work develops in painting, sculpture, photography, and video art. In her works, Jeane uses rubble and the “paint skin”, a technique she developed from mixing acrylic paint and binder, which, made in thin layers, takes on the appearance of skin. The artist uses paint “skins” to produce her paintings, some using the cross-stitch technique, or cut and pasted directly onto the canvas. A kind of body - painting. Just as, by using rubble from houses and buildings as an object of work and covering them with velvet skins, it generates new meanings to the body-house matter. The artist has participated in individual and group exhibitions in Brazil and abroad.
