A Ilha Dos Amores
Vasconcelos creates objects that on one hand want to democratize art through articles of daily use and on the other hand criticize the consumer himself. Crochet in her works is a symbol of universal language, the women’s language. She demonstrates an antagonism between handcrafts produced in different cultures and consumer goods of modern society.

Vienna_roomnumberOne: Body of the Line
Drawing usually remains an intermediate medium. It serves to focus towards a multi-dimensional orientation.
As a basis for the technical and formal quality of an object it often remains in this subservient preliminary stage. While it happens that the purpose of the drawing is satisfied in the sketch with austere gestures, the depth of the drawing process can at other times gain the upper hand.
Overwhelmed by the sensuality of the matter, this detail becomes a thrilling experience, an overflowing, all-engrossing topic.
Formerly, the fingers guided the line, now the line moves the hand. The naïve paper and unconcerned line become an expression of a dependency and receive, in return, a material self through the artistic styling.
Thus, Darina Kmetova´s room installations are less a purely artistic act, but rather the result of an intense relationship.
