The series, held between 2016 and 2017 in your Studio in Santa Teresa, presents trampolines and platforms designed on the empty, In addition to other architectures ambivalent in paintings on paper, material that Tannuri dominates since it specializes in recycled paper.

"At least from 2003, When performed the installation ' Walls ', at the Centro Cultural Sérgio Porto, the artist points critically domination and the smooth. Tannuri handles the literal and newspaper, symbolically, its pages are like countries territory, limits of their physical boundaries, cultural, Economic and social. In earlier work, as ' Empty ' (2005) in the Imperial Palace, the architecture is transfigured by monumental volumes of cardboard, here small and medium formats condense the immensity. Apparently empty spaces, because there is no direct presence of the body, signaling the loneliness of living among many. In the series Abyss, the intense blue and deep (patented by the French artist Yves Klein, that Jump was held in Empty, in 1960), It is well disguised gap current opening banks own neighbouring edges of the paper. Each horizon is misaligned by your own abyss”, writes! Luiza Interlenghi, Curator of the exhibition.
