[...] On the basis of the design he had brought with him, he began to play freely with forms and the final result, after seven months’ work, conserves the general lines of the project he had carried out in Brazil.
In an interview with Clarice Lispector, Camargo explained that expansion, in the sense in which he used the concept, meant liberation. This seems to have been the allegory of the Geneva panel. Liberated forms, or rather, ones trapped beneath the tangle of gestures that lead to their dissolution: birds, carts, dice, spirals. A huge floral bouquet, as Carneiro suggested, a ‘joyful’ work which evokes the sense of balance implicit in the notion of good health."
