We are pleased to share Karlos Gil’s participation in the group show Anunciação: A Love Letter to Lisbon, in Convento da Graça, in Lisbon
Organized by Xavier Auza, the exhibition brings together different artists in an homage to the city, reflecting through their work the diversity that makes the Universe so infinite and full of possibilities when guided by Light.
Gil’s “Second Sun (Santorini / Arosa)” uses imagination and technology to generate a re-imagined landscape inside the gallery. Using references from speculative science–fiction, the installation operates as portal to a parallel new world, creating an alter narrative on our ecological future. Visitors are temporarily blinded by brightly illuminated fog when enter the space, finding a double sunset –or doppelganger sun– in the back that illuminates the whole scenario.
On view until 28 March 2027.
