About this artwork
I try to be fast and spontaneous when I’m painting - that process should be reflected in the final piece. The observer should be able to infer the physicality of the painting process, when looking at the brush strokes and paint drippings.
When I throw paint, I can do it with some premeditation - but I can never really predict where the paint will actually fall on the canvas. So, my approach to painting is - in part - based on chance, on small random… accidents - it doesn’t rely exclusively on my persistence or my technique.
That’s why I don’t feel completely responsible for my paintings - in the sense that, although I can answer for my initial intentions, the final result is always something that I could never anticipate, and something that’s out of my absolute control.

« Paintings should not be loved. Only the "next artwork" deserves full devotion and interest. »
Mario Henrique is a passionate Portuguese painter who has exhibited his work in Portugal, Brazil, Germany and the US. Forever intrigued by the subtleties and double meanings of people's body language, expressions and looks, he composes works centred around people. He uses his portraits to represent the impermanence of facial expressions and unpredictability of human movements, and paints abruptly and spontaneously in drippings and splashings.
