In this series, I started based on research about the great masters of the Renaissance, Baroque, and Rococo. I took their magical and unreachable characters that fascinated me so much through the history books, transported them to my universe, and then protected them with my fragile porcelain helmets. I detach myself from these classic and literal paintings and get closer to a more contemporary context, permanently attached to my affective memories that are the basis of all my work. — Lúcio Carvalho.
