Miudinho – In the beginning there was only the black dot on a white background. From that moment on, new possibilities are opened for occupying the space of the two-dimensional canvas — a new black and white, regular shapes succeed each other in compositions that gradually lead to sinuous lines and gray shapes. Then comes the explosion of colorful shapes that blend and transform.
Video experiment on the theme Miudinho (Dança – Bachianas Brasileiras n.4, 1942) by Heitor Villa-Lobos (1887-1959), interpreted by DuoGisbranco.
