Encounters

“Five Unfinished Platonic Love Encounters” (2022) is the new collection of works by Nacho Frades inspired by the unique feeling of remembering when you met someone special in the past. All five works feature two chairs placed in empty, colourful settings reminiscent of hot, gleeful nights you may have spent in the Summer. The table and the chairs are between a green garden and a grey road. They are painted by Frades as close to each other as possible, as if they were ready to kiss. Between nature and artificiality, what remains is human sensibility.
