brunelle dias primbs is a painter whose practice explores the notions of the extended self by pointing the lens outwards onto her own personal surroundings and extended environments. Examining her personal orbit, and allowing these threads of connections to form between moments and places in her life.
In her current exhibition on at Grace Aotearoa, mysterium rationis dias primbs presents a beautiful body of paintings that circulate around her recent family travels. Caught in between moments of awe and admiration, while also finding herself in places of critique on these wider notions of tourism and travel.
The work itself draws from these diaristic images taken by dias primbs on her travels. Imagery of galloping horses, cherubs, monkeys in trees and frescos—humming throughout the show pulling the viewer into this space of temporality. Sitting between the space of the recorded image, and the artist's own memory and feelings of that place.
Maya caught up with brunelle dias primbs about the exhibition and overall practice.
