Hošek Contemporary & mala voadora are pleased to host Invisível, an exhibition by Natascha Frioud & Gaël Epiney in Porto. Curated by Linda Toivio.

In their collaborative project Invisível, Swiss artists Natascha Frioud and Gaël Epiney question why certain sculptures are forgotten, no longer considered or looked at, and if they could somehow be reconsidered.
Invisível unfolds the second stage of the project, initiated earlier this year in Berlin. Each stage of the project is city-specific, while the concept is conceived to be transferred to any urban setting. Its local relevancy stems from extensive research within the neighbourhoods and thorough engagement with either habitual or unknown surroundings.
The ten sculptures chosen for the exhibition in Porto vary from public art pieces to monuments, each blending into the landscape, growing moss or serving as impromptu bird stands. By seeking out these static structures standing in plain sight yet unseen, the artists acknowledge and give new meaning to unobvious elements.
Invisível restores value to these neglected silhouettes of the urbanscape by deconstructing the process of becoming invisible. After Porto, the project will be further developed and adapted to another city.
