Rui Barros (Porto, Portugal) creates media artworks, paintings, drawings and mixed media.
His media artworks establish a link between the landscape’s reality and that imagined by its conceiver. These works focus on concrete questions that determine our existence. By using popular themes such as sexuality, family structure and violence, he tries to approach a wide scale of subjects in a multi-layered way
His works demonstrate how life extends beyond its own subjective limits and often tells a story about the effects of global culture. A world where light-heartedness rules and where rules are undermined is created.
The possibility or the dream of the annulment of a (historically or socially) fixed identity is a constant focal point.
