carlos vala

(b.1986, PT) is an architect and artist based in Baleal, Portugal. His multifaceted career spans architecture, graphic design, painting, and artistic installations, characterized by a deep exploration of contradictions and the blending of diverse styles. 

 

vala’s work is fueled by the primal pleasure of creation, where the physical act of painting brings something new and essential into existence. He finds immense satisfaction in the process itself – the various stages of development – and in the result that emerges.  

 

“my work engages in a polyamorous relationship with various styles and practices. I have a home and family within each, occasionally hosting gatherings with all or just a few.” 

 

drawing inspiration from a wide array of sources, Vala feels compelled to honor each one without exclusion, resulting in a vibrant, eclectic celebration of numerous artistic voices. His approach to appropriation is both expansive and inclusive, drawing from a wide spectrum of historical art forms and blending them into innovative hybrids.  

 

the deep exploration of contradictions is another central aspect of Vala´s practice, which balances raw, unrestrained, instinctual expression with precise, geometric forms, embracing both the playful and the disciplined aspects of creation.
