WINNERS ANNOUNCED!! Thank you to all who participated! The first place gets to take the painting home. Second and third places get features alongside the painting during the exhibition. Congrats everyone!   First Place: André Campos  Rasgar Liberto-me da condição de escravo, não mais me consumo de pena nem culpa, pena de mim, culpa minha, tudo meu. Quem me rasgou a vida levou-me o tempo. Por isso rasguei a mágoa, o orgulho, não resta mais nada. Rasguei o tempo à carne, lambi o sangue. Levantei as mãos ao céu e deixei-as ficar, dancei, de mãos levantadas enquanto expurgava todos os meus pecados porque eu sempre quis ser bom. Em quanto amor insisti? ————————————————————————————————- Second place: Benedita SN The Man in Hell A Man is dead in life when his Myths are enclosed. In the trench of Hell he is told he can never leave. Burning flows of anger in his mind, through his veins. The Red Dragon fighter in mutation will soon appear. Crossing the seas and the deserts of prejudices and pain. To free the soul of the Man his Heart he couldn’t hear.  ———————————————————————————————- Third place: José Avilez Ogando O índio Capaguay O Capaguay apareceu nas várias tribos das Pampas, antes da chegada dos primeiros conquistadores. Apesar de resultar da evolução social destas tribos, mantém acesa a chama guerreira dos seus antepassados, não pelo poder, mas por ideias que têm no centro a capacidade do Homem de viver em harmonia com o meio que partilha com os restantes seres. Os Capaguay são hoje formados por todos os homens e mulheres livres que se procuram no amor humano, não por si próprios, mas pela firme certeza de que o projeto humano é para ser cumprido, já aqui na terra. E que o que não for aqui vivido, não o será depois.

Rasgar

Second place: Benedita SN

The Man in Hell

A Man is dead in life when his Myths are enclosed. In the trench of Hell he is told he can never leave. Burning flows of anger in his mind, through his veins.

The Red Dragon fighter in mutation will soon appear. Crossing the seas and the deserts of prejudices and pain. To free the soul of the Man his Heart he couldn’t hear.

Third place: José Avilez Ogando

O índio Capaguay

O Capaguay apareceu nas várias tribos das Pampas, antes da chegada dos primeiros conquistadores. Apesar de resultar da evolução social destas tribos, mantém acesa a chama guerreira dos seus antepassados, não pelo poder, mas por ideias que têm no centro a capacidade do Homem de viver em harmonia com o meio que partilha com os restantes seres. Os Capaguay são hoje formados por todos os homens e mulheres livres que se procuram no amor humano, não por si próprios, mas pela firme certeza de que o projeto humano é para ser cumprido, já aqui na terra. E que o que não for aqui vivido, não o será depois.
