António de Matos Ferreira was born on the 16th April of 1942, in Cantanhede, and recently restarted to paint.
Inclined for the experimental discovery - between reality and dream, on the eve of a (re)invention of fantastic imagery - he began with drawing, recipient of industrial technology that produced the technological innovation of 'acrylic' paint. The contemporary economy of this phenomenona allowed him to win the canvas as ancestral support.
“Looking and enjoying your paintings, may not be compatible to an immediate logical of reducibility of its ontological substrate, but surely provides a trip to the Fantastic where matter and movement combine and tend to merge, in simplicity, the perception and he intention to visualize landscapes without translation, instantaneous flashes captured of a bridge between us and your worlds.”
José-Luís Ferreira
