[EN]

In some of her works from the 1970s, Mira experimented with materials that were rare in her production, but still featured her letters and calligraphic suggestions. Using spray - which in itself is a technique that occupies a unique place in the artist's production - Mira incorporates an unusual chromatic variation, between greens, golds, blues and browns. This technique is also used in her 1975 work Homenagem a Deus - Pai do Ocidente (Homage to God - Father of the West).

Known for works that convey a quietness and a discreet, subtle presence, Mira in these works leaves aside such introspective choices, making use of an unsuspected repertoire within her career. The use of spray paint is one of the elements that transports us to the period of Mira's production in the 1970s, a period marked by the military dictatorship, the end of the Vietnam War and growing industrialization in Brazil.

[PT]

Em algumas obras da década de 1970, Mira experimenta materiais mais raros em sua produção, porém ainda assim comparecem suas letras e sugestões caligráficas. Se utilizando de spray – o que em si já é uma técnica que ocupa um lugar singular na produção da artista – Mira incorpora uma inusual variação cromática, entre verdes, dourados, azuis e marrons. Tal técnica é canalizada também em sua obra Homenagem a Deus – Pai do Ocidente, de 1975.

Conhecida por trabalhos que transmitem uma quietude e uma presença discreta e sutil, Mira nestas obras deixa de lado tais escolhas introspectivas, fazendo uso de um repertório insuspeitado dentro de seu percurso. O emprego do spray é um dos elementos que nos transporta para o período da produção de Mira nos anos 1970, marcado pela ditadura militar, pelo fim da guerra do Vietnã e pela crescente industrialização no Brasil.
