Call Incoming… takes its cue from the playground game “Telephone”, where a whispered message morphs each time it’s passed along. Made up entirely of new, bespoke works, the inception of this show began with a piece by curator Haydn Albrow, whose work was shared confidentially to the next artist to reinterpret in their own style and medium before they passed their piece onto another. The chain continues artist by artist, culminating in
an exhibition that reveals how a single artwork can evolve, distort, and transform through multiple creative voices.
As each piece morphs through medium, material, and theme, the show celebrates the diversity of the featured artists’ interpretive lenses. While the Telephone Game is often a byword for inaccuracy or a cumulative error caused by the spread of information, “Call Incoming…” stands as a celebration of evolution of a message through interpretation and translation.
In a world of polarised discourse and remote communication where tone and nuance are so often lost in restrictive formats, “Call Incoming…” also questions our tendency to assume we have all the information we need to make a judgement – will the artwork at the end of the chain bear any resemblance to the initial piece?

He graduated in Phonograph Production at the Aeso Barros Melo, Olinda – PE, and studied Visual Arts in a degree at
the Universi- dade Lusófona de Lisboa. Paes is interested in researching the human condition in its deepest and most complex aspects, whether related to power, intolerance, pain, resistance, fear and love. Finding his expression with a more abstract focus in the way he expresses bodies figuratively and also in the messages embedded in this dialectic. There is a recurring presence of themes such as memory, absence, rebirth, political and social denunciation, affections and rituals. The relationship between human beings and nature, Gods or entities from a mythological and historical decolonial narrative. Paes has exhibited in group and solo shows in galleries from Spain and Belfast, including TACA, Inéditad, Escat, Platform Arts, Pollen Studios and Catalyst Arts.

sleep’. During his three-day retreat, Paes completed a few paintings on our Auto Amor boards, which will be available to view on our Artsy page, view his current work on our page via the link in our bio.
A wonderful few days of making, thank you, Paes
