For each RETORI chapter, we engage in a stimulating dialogue with artists from different corners of the world, creating a space for reflection, inspiration, and creative exchange. For Chapter 04, this dialogue unfolds with Brazilian artist Gustavo Nazareno, whose work explores spirituality, self-conquest, and transformation through a symbolic visual language. Building on its exploration of the invisible forces that shape identity, RETORI’s Chapter 04 collection reflects on duality and transcendence, navigating the tension between light and shadow. Informed by his Catholic upbringing and Afro-Brazilian spiritual traditions, Nazareno’s practice is imbued with theatricality, grandeur, and chiaroscuro, exploring themes of ritual, metamorphosis, and inner strength.
