Like artifacts recovered from a preserved ancient city—Pompeii, maybe, or perhaps more aptly, Atlantis—Furtado’s sculptures are at once pristine and timeworn; sumptuous and rough. Ancient in shape yet futuristic in color, their place of origin is as mysterious as the process by which they were created. With forms as enigmatic as their materials, these works call to mind faraway lands and unknowable civilizations, representing a simultaneous transmutation and accumulation of time and matter.
