"A new exhibition entitled “Rhythm Colours” is opening on April 7 at Loulé’s In the Pink gallery. The invited artists are Saïdou Dicko, Derrick Ofosu Boateng and Thandiwe Muriu.

Photography is a powerful tool for transporting viewers to new and different places. And, with this ability, it often seems as if the sounds, scents and textures present in the images are genuinely felt.

In the exhibition “Rhythm of Colours”, the selection of artworks explores this extraordinary trait, as their voluptuous and intense hues usher a sort of beat that transforms compositions into something more than just visual, towards a tuneful territory.

Through their works, the artists investigate a bountiful imagery that brings the audience closer to the rumbling noises of busy streets, the joyful melody of children playing, roaring drums in the distance, the poetic silences of a family home’s backyard or the tempo in waves crashing the shore."
