“Impressions on Nature”- Paintings by Isabel Pavão, exhibition at the United Nations, New York, July 22 to August 2, 2024

Included in the show, are: “Ten Impressions of Rose and Sea” a collaboration with poet Nuno Júdice, the title for his poems is the one chosen also for this specific group of paintings. This work was created in 2015 and a book was published in 2016, by Pagine d’Arte in portuguese/english/french. 

We agreed as a method that I created 10 paintings and he created 10 poems as a response to my artwork, originating an open-ended dialog between poetry and painting, creating new dimensions of meaning and experience. This is also a tribute to the late Nuno Júdice, whose recent untimely passing has left a void in the world of letters. In memoriam, this exhibition serves as a testament to Júdice’s enduring legacy, celebrating his contributions to the realms of poetry and artistic collaboration.

“Snow Studies – Atmospheres” – Impressions series, 2004 -2024, two paintings included in this show, are a reflection on the beauty and poetic nature of winter with the nostalgic feeling of seasons. With the underlying desire of sustainability and changing weather patterns. Symbolism and meaning, nature and sustainability, and our perception of time are all themes that inspired the artwork in this exhibition.

This exhibition is in the context of the celebration of 500 years of Camoes with the patronage of the Embassy of Portugal to the United Nations in New York, The Consulate General of Portugal in New York and Camões Institute.

Exposição/Exhibition Impressions of Camellia and Lemon / Impressões de Camélia e Limão. Paço dos Duques de Bragança, Guimarães, Portugal. 

Inauguracão/Opening,  Sábado/Saturday,  24 de Fevereiro/February  17:30h

The «Impressions of Camellia and Lemon» series is a deeply reflective visual exploration on nature, childhood, beauty, and origin stories/memories.

The personal connection to camellias and lemons, is linked to memories of my childhood garden, being a source of inspiration. These plants symbolize cultural migrations and ancient histories, reflecting the interest of ancestral origins in the Middle East (Syria) and back to the Orient (China and Japan). The series also delves into emotional symbols of love, sorrow, abundance, survival, resilience, hope, and beauty.
This project combines a historical/conceptual dimension with an emotional/poetical dimension, constructing an autobiographical narrative. It contemplates the experience of time, exploring suspended time, «in-between» moments, and a voyage through time, transcending the boundaries of past and future. Time is portrayed as a contextual illusion. This series was conceived from 2018 until now.
