A graduate of the Fine Arts School in Belo Horizonte, Randolpho Lamonier brings a subjective yet documentary perspective to the sex, protest, night and political lives of his native suburb and of Brazil’s big cities. In his series Prophecies (2018), the colourful images and the words embroired on large banners are all contemporary demands prophetised in the future, which reflect a current state of injustice and oppression. This form of protest patchwork, alternative to a state of normality, is found in works such as Vigilia (2017): an installation that juxtaposes neons, videos and photographs of raw images that explore so-called marginal lifestyles and practices
— anticapitalist demonstrations, bondage, hospital beds and drag queens –, composing an identity that is both intimate and collective. His output resonates like an appeal for general vigilance for a fairer, more inclusive future. For the Young International Creation show, Lamonier assembles, collects and accumulates objects, material and gestures in an installation that reflects a conscious state of insurrection, where blood mingles with an acidulous queer aesthetic, like a festive response to everyday violence.
