Jorge Martins' drawings: an unconscious challenge and an adventure of consciousness
This approach to Jorge Martins' drawings, based on conversations with the artist, intends to glimpse a certain underlying essence of his artistic activity. This mind-body symbiotic activity was associated with poetics, presuming that it facilitates immersion in an idiosyncratic truth. Thus, an understanding of drawing was sought as a means of sensitive exteriorization through the association between the awakening of unconscious reality and the reality of consciousness – having as a bridge the unreality of the imaginary as a metaphor for the essence of reality.

Abstract:
This approach to Jorge Martins' drawings, based on conversations with the artist, intends to glimpse a certain underlying essence of his artistic activity. This mind-body symbiotic activity was associated with poetics, presuming that it facilitates immersion in an idiosyncratic truth. Thus, an understanding of drawing was sought as a means of sensitive exteriorization through the association between the awakening of unconscious reality and the reality of consciousness – having as a bridge the unreality of the imaginary as a metaphor for the essence of reality.
