On the back of the painting on cardboard by Bertina Lopes is a dedication by the artist written in black felt-tip pen to the recipient of the work:<\/p>\n
Title: Life has many paths, but do you know yours? with affection Bertina (Mama B) Rome, 29\/9\/2001<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Studying the composition of Bertina Lopes’ work, one perceives in the sometimes psychedelic and kaleidoscopic splashes of colour the strength of her joy of living and improving the world.<\/p>\n
Another of her prerogatives is the use of ‘banal’ and everyday materials to decorate and give strength to her work.<\/p>\n
His imagination knows no bounds: felts that magically and poetically become Christmas decorations, stars rising from gold paper as in the work on black paper. In this work, gilded metal washers from a toolbox end up jumping onto the artwork.<\/p>\n
