Catalogue Essay
“ Rio Branco’s colors seep out of their borders like bodily fluids, staining and contaminating everything around them. Bodies, bindings, wounds, and walls are wet with color. Even his mirrors bleed. Rio Branco’s is an art of contamination, contagion, and corrosion, but also of resistance and transcendence.”
