PAULO ARRAIANO - ARTE URBANA - PORTUGAL

Paulo Arraiano’s visual universe lies in a duality that merges the natural and the artificial, nature and urbanity, emergence and creation. In the intersection between these two seemingly opposite and excluding worlds, he has managed to set a new-found balance which emerges from the primitive energy that flows between one and the other and lies at the root of his visual dialectics. Seeking society even before the reference “man”. A territory, a body, a drift through flows of energy. Paulo Arraiano’s visual work has been focusing on the immaterial territory and its connection with the physical territory: emotional cartographies where the body acts as an extension of nature through a medium based on the motion and fluidity of the connection to the root, trying to bring to the city the energy it tends to forget. In the visual artist’s work, the detachment for the original work sets off the emotional wandering in a new dialoguing body/space, a convergence between urban cartography and the meridians of the human body, in an alignment of premisses for a work of “urban acupuncture”. Searching for points of conflict, blockage emotional and energetic flows to be returned to the geographical space.



Born in Cascais, Portugal (1977), where he currently lives. Has a degree in Communication by ISCEM (Lisbon), and also studied at Ar.Co – Centro de Arte e Comunicação Visual (Lisbon). He has participated in some 45 exhibitions, both solo and collective, national and international, including at: LaTour13/Galerie Itinerrance (Paris), Lydmar (Stockholm), Trädgården (Stockholm), WestBerlin Gallery (Berlin), Pure Evil (London), Mercado Del Borne (Barcelona), Museé d’Art Moderne (Luxembourg), ArtBasel (Miami), Together Gallery (Portland), Anno Domini Gallery (San José, CA), National Building Museum, (Washington DC), ArtWhino Gallery (Washington DC), BBS Gallery (Tokyo), Museu de Angra do Heroísmo (Azores), Influx Contemporary Art (Lisbon), Galeria António Prates (Lisbon), P28 (Lisbon), among others. He has also participated in several artist residency programmes, such as LAC (Lagos, Portugal), Walk&Talk (Azores), Transforma (Torres Vedras, Portugal), among others, as well as in countless international public art projects.

Seeking society even before the reference “man”. A territory, a body, a drift through flows of energy. Paulo Arraiano's visual work has been focusing on the immaterial territory and its connection with the physical territory – emotional cartographies where the body acts as an extension of nature through a medium based on the motion and fluidity of the connection to the root, trying to bring to the city the energy it tends to forget. In the video Emotional Landscapes, the visual artist's work extends onto the body of performer Diana Coelho, where the detachment for the original work sets off the emotional wandering in a new dialoguing body. The shared journey points to a convergence between urban cartography and the meridians of the human body, in an alignment of premisses for a work of “urban acupuncture”. Points of conflict and blockage, emotional and energetic flows will be sought, which then will be worked in a performative action to be returned to the geographic space.

In the organic flow of lines, characters, shapes, colours and compositions that form Paulo Arraiano’s visual universe, there lies a duality that merges the natural and the artificial, nature and urbanity, emergence and creation. In the intersection between these two seemingly opposite and excluding worlds, he has managed to set a new-found balance that emerges from the primitive energy that flows between one and the other and is at the root of the visual language he has created and so intensely expresses. In this universe, the all-encompassing nom de guerre of Yup is an exclamation of positivity, an exhortation to life at its fullest, to the primeval motion which is channelled forward by means of those same lines, those same meridians that express the subject of drawing in its purest and most essential form.

Having grown-up as an only-child, on a diet of Japanese and American animation, Belgian comics and Lego blocks, he recalls the importance his father, as an architect, had on imprinting his passion for drawing, and that of his mother, a journalist and writer, on his love of books and the written word. Later on, during his wild, teenage angst-ridden years, he would come upon skateboarding and the interest for graphic and visual culture derived from rebelliousness, loud music and the aggressiveness of the urban environment. And yet, even then, his other side would balance this with the fluidity and harmony of the ocean, a primal need for nature, surfing and a love for the good vibes and irie soul of Jamaican roots and other natural and acoustic rhythms. Music as a life-long companion became an entry point to the world of composition, colour and design. And Design became a love-hate relationship, developed and pursued professionally until he realised the path of construction it offered was no longer meaningful, no longer provided the answers and harmony he yearned for.

He has dabbled extensively in several media and activities, from editorial design to commercial illustration, from clothing to toy design, from wall painting to screen-printing, from street interventions to gallery shows, from type design to teaching. Pervasive to all is the ever-present nature of drawing that forms the backbone of all his activities. Drawing as the harnessing of that primitive flow of energy that enables him to express, conduct and set forth his inner needs in order to balance internal and external issues, used as a harmony-reaching self-therapy. Drawing as everything, from dancing to surfing, from organising exhibitions to pure visual expression; body in motion, movement, energy, flowing through lines and reaching out to people, communicating, bringing them together and generating more energy, more flow.

His own self-confessed insecurities have relentlessly driven him to explore, experiment and question in order to follow his path of creation to its ultimate. Whether digital or analog, printed or hand-drawn, Yup is essentially about a never-ending quest, an unstoppable metamorphosis of styles and endless pursuit of balance, fully imbued with genuine love and soul. A quest for the roots, for the organic balance and energy motion that shapes, forms and sustains all life in this complex network of interactions and symbiotic relationships we are all a part of. A quest for a new writing system, a new language to bridge the natural and the artificial, nature and urbanity, which has become more and more abstract, more and more texturised, closer and closer to what lies at the root of all things.

Tellus By Yup
Tellus, Terra Mater was the Protogenos (primeval divinity) of earth, one of the primal elements who first emerged at the dawn of creation, along with air, sea and sky. She was the great mother of all : the heavenly gods were descended from her union with Ouranos (the sky), the sea-gods from her union with Pontos (the sea), the Gigantes from her mating with Tartaros (the hell-pit) and mortal creatures were sprung or born from her earthy flesh.
