In astronomy and geography, nadir is the lowest point of the celestial sphere, as seen from an observer on the planet’s surface. The Nadir is the diametrically opposite point on the celestial sphere from the Zenith, which is the point directly above the observer in the horizontal coordinate system. Nadir is the projection of the vertical alignment that is under the observer’s feet, as if "a hole" ran through the other side of the planet. Nadir, whose prefix nad has a connection with Sanskrit, would mean a channel, stream, or flow of nothingness. It would then be the channel in which the prana would circulate throughout the body to infinity.

Tulio Pinto

In the last twelve years, Túlio Pinto has developed research on sculpture and installation with industrial materials, which denote in the constitution and in the way they are presented, his intention to promote encounters of different potentialities and temperaments; of oppositions that are based on the limits of their possibilities. His work “Athar” means impact in Arabic. The family of works that bears this name presents more radical load situations suffered by the glass pieces that the artist intends to use in established systems. Athar #5 consists of three H-beams and a glass bubble. For Usina de Arte, the challenge was to install the piece over the water mirror of one of the institution’s dams, activating a new layer of perception of the work based on its duplication through its reflection in the water. The series of works entitled Nadir presents, in different systems, angled glass sheets, in an "interrupted fall" position. This pause in the falling movement is due to the interdependence generated between the glass and the system of ropes and stones. The minerals work as an anchor for the situation and a pendulum that "supports" the interrupted movement of the glass. Like Athar, Nadir #almost an island 02 was also installed over a water mirror in one of the institution’s reservoirs.
