Drawing
It is mainly in black and white works that the importance of drawing stands out. Drawing is a process of transmitting thought to a language of shapes and lines that structure the white paper or canvas, whether it is painting or any other form of expression.
Installation
The installations are a deepening of concepts through other dimensions that are not implicit in drawing or painting, they are rather sculptures that summon a three-dimensional reality where movement is fundamental to understanding the scope and nature of the works.
Painting
Painting is transversal to any work because it summons the plastic expression of a universal language and which, in essence, is the recreation of a personal cosmology translated into an image.
Small Format
Small formats are generally preparatory works for larger dimensions, sketches that emerge from the flow of the line that grasps ideas in their embryonic form and that can later be developed in other directions.
Painting over Photography
The works in this exhibition are based on the idea that plastic representation is the result of a personal cosmology. The experience of the landscape is the starting point from which the observer's identity is shaped, making the images a script for individual sensitivity and a model for understanding reality. The works are multifaceted perspectives on what is seen but they are also agents of change since observing and thinking about the landscape is also acting on it and as a result they produce something new that did not exist before. The fascination of the work of art is this vision of individuality about the world, unrepeatable, unique and full of symbolism.
Landscape Findings
"Les objects trouvés" in the open combine in this category with other small interventions that take place on nature trips. The "Landscape Findings" are part of a collection of information that is randomly collected and form a database for the painting process.
