DRAG RACE

Giving tangible substance to the luxury that constitutes unrestricted self-expression, Joana Vasconcelos gave new life to a Porsche 911 Targa Carrera. Starting from the opulence of the Baroque and the generous curves of gilded woodwork, the artist's research took her to the Tibães Monastery in Braga, the greatest exponent of marine motifs in gilded woodwork in Portugal, and to the triumphant specimen of the Oceans in the collection of the Coach Museum in Lisbon. She used the artisans of the Ricardo Espírito Santo Silva Foundation - from treating the wood to gilding, chiselling and engraving - to create a work that is unique in the world and is also a celebration of hand craftsmanship. Even without moving, angelic figures and sensual feathers give the piece the illusion of flight provided by speed, inviting you on a journey to the charm of the Parisian Can-can and establishing the link to the Drag Races in the United States of America from which the artist took her title.
