Carlos Noronha Feio’s work is engaged with the points at which geography and migration meet, where differing cultures collide, interfere and impose their imperatives on each other. He represents these concerns from the personal perspective of his own Portuguese nationality. For the project A A and Away Noronha Feio uses imagery from Afghan carpets as a starting point, particularly those depicting the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in the 1980s. However, Noronha Feio admits that as an ‘occidental’ he stands outside of this cultural history and therefore he intervenes by creating his own designs inspired by the carpets. There will be a specially commissioned publication available alongside the exhibition.
