Resumo

Destacando os desafios e as estimulantes possibilidades oferecidas pelos textos de James Joyce, são enfocadas neste artigo as ilustrações de Jun-Pierre Shiozawa para Ulysses, uma série de dezoito aquarelas produzidas em 2014 para cada episódio da obra e que compõem uma das galerias digitais no website do artista. O enfoque do estudo é demonstrar que a (aparente) simplicidade proposta pela aquarela enquanto meio (considerando a fragilidade de suas formas, a suavidade de seus contrastes entre claro e a delicadeza de suas texturas) revela uma rede complexa de conotações e camadas coesas de significação, construídas especialmente em função das cenas escolhidas para ilustração, do ponto de vista a partir do qual elas são apresentadas e de sua associação ao texto de Joyce, colocado em trechos curtos em legendas que as acompanham. O artigo está estruturado em uma única seção, em cuja análise propriamente dita são observados os principais recursos composicionais empregados em cada ilustração, os efeitos que evocam e as relações entre texto e imagem implicadas nas legendas. Com base nos Estudos da Imagem, é também discutido em que sentido o termo simplicidade é empregado no estudo, o que oferece uma dimensão da arte de Shiozawa.
