A series of sculptures organized around relationships of weight, support, and balance. The works are composed of distinct elements—solid wooden logs, structures, and human figures—that are arranged in configurations where the support and the load do not coincide in a stable manner. The figures are placed atop volumes, creating situations of physical tension between the elements.

The work focuses on how these relationships define the sculptures’ presence in space. Scale is understood as a relationship between the work, the visitor’s body, and the exhibition space, rather than as a fixed measurement.

João Castro Silva is a sculptor and associate professor at the Faculty of Fine Arts of the University of Lisbon (FBAUL), where he teaches in all three levels of study—Bachelor’s, Master’s, and Doctorate—of the Sculpture program. He earned his Bachelor’s and Doctorate degrees at the same faculty.

    Integrated Himalayan Yoga

    Integrated Himalayan Yoga classes are based on the recognition that Yoga is much more than physical postures. It is a journey of integrating the human being in all of her/his/their dimensions: body, energy, mind, and awareness. In my classes, I strive to offer a balanced and profound practice that encompasses a diversity of tools to work on the different layers of our being, from the densest to the most subtle, stimulating processes of internal transformation, balance, and expansion of consciousness. Depending on the intention of the practice, different techniques may be included, such as Hatha Vinyasa, Pranayama, Kriya, Kundalini, Mantras, Mudras, Yogic Wisdom, and Meditation. If this resonates with you, join me on the mat, in Sines, in Centro UniSer. - Sessions on Mondays at 18:30-19:45 & Tuesdays at 07:30-08:45 Classes in Portuguese. Booking is essential.
