About Diogo Malanho : Me, Malanho I started drawing before I started reading; now I need to draw because it helps me interpret the world and see dreams in another dimension, and sometimes it is complicated to explain why I need to draw. When I mention Drawing I 'imagine it' as an outpouring of thoughts in which the communication eye (vision)-brain (process)-brain (generator), where the intellectual capacity to transmit is implicit, whatever the support, both physical and digital, a gesture, an image generator, an action that is capable of updating the 'virtual' produced by thought. Whatever the form of the drawing, it represents the principle in which I organise and express thoughts and visual perceptions. Therefore, drawing is not only a form of artistic expression, but it also poses questions of representation. At this moment I find myself developing work in which the processes used by the brain serve to transform images into a notion of three-dimensional space, the impact of new technologies on drawing, the impact on both the tradition of drawing and the application technique of the material (natural stone) on the architect's performance, and on their working processes. I explore the aspect of drawing as an idea of reflection, representation and interaction.
