The Artium Institute of Culture opens the exhibition Bone Point, with more than 30 new works by artist Marcia de Moraes, designed specifically for the architecture of Palacete Stahl. The exhibition, which occupies both the rooms and the garden, will be open to the public from May 26th to August 18th, with free entry.
Marcia de Moraes and work @ Daniela Toviansky
The 30 drawings that occupy the internal area of the exhibition space were designed especially for this installation. All works are 2.80 meters high and, side by side, are ten meters long, in a sequential and polyptych composition.

In addition to the drawings, the artist also designed a wooden installation to occupy an entire room and ceramic sculptures for the mansion’s garden. The title of the exhibition, Ponto de Osso, was born in reference to this universe of ceramics, the moment when the clay dries and it is no longer possible to model it.
