Carola Colley interdisciplinary artist

An exhibition of  work on paper

Centro de Artes e Ofícios, São Brás de Alportel 8th May - 30th June 2026

PORTAS explores the delicate idea of the connection of all things in watercolour and relief print.

I am interested in connectivity; interconnectivity, mycelium networks, the lines we walk, the marks we make. I am interested in liminality; the spaces between, at the edge, the undefined moments between this and that, the grey. I am interested in similarity; pattern making across the globe and across the ages, texts and textiles, words and gestures, that are definitive proof of connection and similarity rather than difference. I am interested in repetition, weaving, the creation of beauty out of the mundane, looking for the sublime in the simplest of things, often mushroom related.
