Fixing shadows to various supports has been a constant in Lourdes Castro’s work since the 1960s. She uses a mix of techniques and materials such as Plexiglas, silk-screen printing, painting, embroidery and as in the present case, the azulejo, sometimes giving the shadow a three-dimensional character. Born on the Island of Madeira, Lourdes Castro attended the School of Fine Arts in Lisbon between 1950 and 1956, a year before settling in Paris with a grant from the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation, with Arpad Szenes (1897-1985) as her mentor. She lived in Paris until 1983. In this Shadow Invitation Figure in azulejo, citing tradition by evoking the typical typologies of 18th century Portuguese production, Lourdes Castro presents a female figure in profile. This figure impels us to silence but as with its 18th century predecessor, it becomes more assertive when applied to the wall, with the contrast between the blue of the azulejo and the white of the wall.
