Noisy Undiscovered Taste
Start by jamming a tomato, feel its pulp running to your fingers, hands and arms.
Feel the pulp alive. Let it impose the paths it wants to take. Add a sufficient amount of laughter and don’t stop it from flowing through your arms.
Then pick up a piece of anything and a little bit of yourself and while smashing try to recreate the joy and the pleasure felt with the tomato pulp.
With strong movements, smash the final paste against the screen.
You have already done the sketches where you are going to apply it, take your time to complete them. Then add a third dimension according to your sensibility Finalize it by feeling the tones - day, twilight, night, cold and warm colors. Above all beware of what is going on inside of you.
Ones more take your time and mix up all the ingredients, being cautious not to forget even a single one.
Support them.
I could have been creating my grandmother recipe. But we have been anything but whispering as if we were making secret confessions.
In what I am about to present, I did not forget that the European Union and the United States of America and other so called civilized countries, describe an apple, believe it or not, a tomato, a pear by their external appearance, resembling those found in the school manuals. They do not demand anything but a specific weight, a specific diameter together with any other requirements that can come to your mind, except for the flavor.
In order for this to happen, any chemical product tested or non-tested will be added to fulfill the established regulations.
If you know that there are chickens and other animals with no head so that can produce only meat, why not a line of production of mushrooms made by bones? Spinach in a bed of heavy metals? Cookies of what you cannot think about…. Something wrong?! Nowadays everything is possible.
They called it fast food, which means food produced fast only to make people alive.
Sooner or later, we will be condemned to watch a fruit becoming a mathematical equation and not something else that fulfills our senses, and why not our dreams.
When a living thing becomes mathematical, but when an equation means lands, water and marketing pollution it is for sure something is wrong.
Buy, buy, buy – buy the most red, the most clean, the most beautiful tomato, perhaps you are buying anything but toxic, and at the end of the day something deadly.
Not pretending to be a radical and with no screams, I intend to show you my deep feeling, expressing my way of living the sensuality of a meal, the cultural pleasure that comes from sharing food. Above all, I intend to praise everything natural.
It is up to you to judge.

Noisy Undiscovered Taste
Rita Portugal presents her latest exhibition at Creative Macau from 6th July to 27th July. Here is the introduction from Rita.
“In my last production I choose large paintings to show the feelings surrounding me. Now, I choose mixed media ensemble, firmed on the products you can see everyday in the showcases, large, small and always attractive but artificial.
I choose to keep the same technique- mixed media, printed fabrics composed in a computer basis linked with brush strokes and polyester, all together with day by day hidden but present elements.
Now, I will show different “set menu” a caricature of artificial beauty but for the worst or the best our possible living beauty.”
Group Exhibtion - BELONGING
Belonging can be your geographical place or the subjective place which lives in your memory.

Painting means feelings, colours, volumes and silences.
My work is about feelings and silences.
I need rhythms.
They start around myself.
They push me to others even when I feel alone.
