The azulejo frames of Jorge Colaço here in study present themselves as an independent area, an available space for technical and artistic experimentation, unifying and revealing multiple influences. These, which come from the author’s own know-how and the history of azulejo, are crossed with coeval artistic influences. Colaço filtered, shaped and transformed these references, creating an identity based in its own decorative vocabulary, capable of distinguish him from other artists of his time who explored the historicist narratives in azulejo. Simultaneously, in some cases, the frames complement, contextualize or dialogue with the respective figurative composition, emphasizing the construction of a global artistic narrative. Colaço also takes advantage of the frames, by structuring and organizing them into multi- parceled spaces that best serve and fit his artistic discourse, enhancing the experience provided by the architecture with azulejo.
