MOLAA Collection. Gift of the artist

Cássia Aresta uses the language of geometry, particularly the harmony or tension between shapes and the way that their boundaries split of overlap, to establish a sense of space and time. Her surfaces balance a variety of art elements, such as line, shape, color, and value in visually poetic ways that provoke reflection and introspection on the part of the viewer. In the case of this collage, which utilizes found materials such as scraps of envelopes and stamps, the material adds an added layer to the narrative, suggesting not just the boundaries between sheets of paper, but between individuals and geographical regions, as well.
