EVILUTION – A New Solo Exhibition By Bordalo II

I fell in love with Bordalo II's art when I saw his raccoon near the Museu Coleção Berardo (located in Belém)

Artur Bordalo, also known as Bordalo II, is an artist living and working in Lisbon. His name is a tribute to his grandfather, the painter Real Bordalo, which he chose to keep the legacy going while allowing it to evolve and grow.

​Bordalo II creates massive — mostly animal — 
sculptures from various discarded objects to create art from trash that otherwise would be disregarded or thrown out.
So when I heard that he had a new exhibition, called Evilution, at United Lisbon Edu Hub (from October 8 to December 18th), I knew I had to go.  Two friends and I arranged to go together yesterday.

This was one of my favorites - a panda made from tires.

Another favorite was this gorilla.  It's made entirely out of cigarette butts.

Yup!  Really!  Take a closer look.

There were some other pieces make from spray paint cans (I would imagine he goes through a fair amount of them as it is one of the mediums he uses).

This piece was sobering as it is made from discarded masks and rapid tests - a bad side effect of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Woodcut art...
There is also a stunning selection of animals crafted entirely from discarded neons demonstrating Bordalo’s style is evolving.
This exhibition is free of charge!  Bonus!
