I don’t believe in maturity. There is always room for the next mistake. -

Kiss
Clemente’s paintings deal with the self, a self defined by one’s sexual desires and the yearning for harmony, security and protection.

The Spectacular Difference
In the morning I mused
It won't return, the magic of life
it won't return
.
became alive for me
and the table with bread on it
gold
and the flower on the table
and the glasses
gold
And what happened to the sadness
In the sadness too, radiance.

Inverted World
As we’ve all learned in school, 70% of the Earth’s surface is covered by water, only 30% is solid ground. What if everything was reversed? What if every land mass was a body of water, and vice versa? This map explores that question, and it is fantastic in at least three definitions of that word: fanciful, implausible and marvelous. The interior of China is marked by a spouting whale, a sailboat ploughs the waves of the Brazilian Ocean, a school of fish traverse the watery wastes of Siberia, large cities dominate places rarely frequented by people in this universe… The oceans in this inverted world are the Great Asian Ocean (the world’s largest), the African, Brazilian, United and Antarctica Oceans.

The technology of silence
The rituals, etiquette
.
silence not absence
.
raw sounds
.
rigorously executed
.
. It is a presence
it has a history a form
.
with any kind of absence
.

We live unsettled lives
and stay in a place
only long enough to find
we don't belong.
Even the clouds, forming
noiselessly overhead,
are cloudy without
resembling us, and, storming
the vacant air,
don't take into account
our present loneliness.
And yet, why should we care?
Already we are walking off
as if to say,
we are not here,
we've always been away.
