Maria Guimarães: Virtual Vertigo

Mixed technique on canvas, 2023, 150×100 cm (381×254 in)

A room filled with glowing screens, a sea of flickering images—this painting feels both nostalgic and unsettling. The warm red undertones and vintage televisions create a retro aesthetic, yet the scene resonates deeply with our modern reality. In an era of media saturation, are we captivated or consumed? The hypnotic allure of countless screens suggests a kind of ‘virtual vertigo,’ where the boundaries between reality and illusion blur. Visually stunning yet thought-provoking, this piece invites us to question the impact of media overconsumption on our minds and perceptions.
