Le temps / Projeto Ruído

Rue Claude de Bettignies, 19 - 7000 Mons

Ruído is a creative project bringing together the Portuguese artists Draw (Frederico Soares Campos, 1988) and Contra (Rodrigo Guinea Gonçalves, 1984), both of whom have backgrounds deeply marked by graffiti and urban art.

The project emerged after a ten-year artistic collaboration, embodying a symbiotic dialogue between the individual language of each element, producing large- and small-scale pieces in a unique and instantly recognisable style. A collective work that interweaves Draw's monochromatic, figurative and deeply human universe with Contra's colourful, abstract, geometric and textural approach, leading to compositions that cement a strong impact on their space and environment, while creating multiform links with the viewer. As a project, Ruído represents the culmination of this relationship, this balance between the organic human form and an abstract and textual intervention, which not only uses space as inspiration, but has its transformation as its objective, creating a constructive interference with its environment by altering the perception of those who inhabit it.

Projeto Ruído worked in rue Claude Bettignies, the street from which the Duesberg Museum is accessed. Time is therefore a natural theme.
