A vast, ink-dark teal ground occupies the upper register, giving way to stark black-and-white gestural marks below — as though the night sky had fractured and scattered its remnants upon the earth. Part I of Cabrita Reis's monumental series 'And the stars of the sky fell to earth,' this large-format aquatint merges cosmic scale with intimate mark-making. The austere palette and commanding presence evoke themes of collapse and revelation central to the artist's conceptual practice. Printed in an edition of 25, this is a rare and powerful impression by one of Portugal's most important contemporary artists.

What is conceptual art?
Sometimes referred to as Conceptualism, this is an art form where the idea(s) or concept(s) behind the work take precedence over material concerns and traditional aesthetics. Many conceptual artworks can be created by anyone simply by following written instructions. The concept or idea is the most essential aspect of the artwork.
