Ceramic tiles, Printed Azulejos - Signed in marker at the back // Azulejos 3 by Joana Vasconcelos is a ceramic mosaic featuring a grid of hand-painted and printed ceramic tiles. The artwork displays two large, interconnected, donut-like forms sketched in shades of gray with central blue circles. The background is divided into a striking yellow on the left and a vivid red on the right, creating a bold contrast. The work plays with symmetry and geometric shapes, blending modern abstraction with traditional Portuguese azulejos. Vasconcelos' fusion of contemporary and historical elements invites reflection on cultural identity and the evolution of visual language.

What is appropriation?
Appropriation in art involves using pre-existing images or objects with little or no modification. This technique has played a significant role across various art forms, including visual arts, music, performance, and literature. In visual arts, appropriation refers to the practice of adopting, sampling, recycling, or borrowing elements—or even entire forms—of existing visual culture, integrating them into new works to create meaning or critique.
