“These materials represent a leap from thought to something else. Pencil and paper are used in other “genres” mostly as preliminary gestures. But, at some point, I understood there was more to this preliminary “pre-occupation”, and the thought processes involved in it.” – Diogo Pimentão, Interview Artuner, Curated Contemporary Art, London
