“With my work, I try to delve into the several layers that compose the edifice of history, to take the shadows cast by this model of uniform development to try and understand what lies behind it; a semi-archaeological dissecting in the search for a functional basis, for an essence which has been lost in the overlapping of layer upon layer upon layer; a cultural basis which lost its sharpness when passed down from generation to generation, a primordial communication which was gradually affected by layers of noise which have driven us apart from each other.” - Vhils aka Alexandre Farto
