About The Artwork
Artwork n.627 Dimensions 90,00 x 90,00 x 2,50 (cm) This is another work from the "Dolls - Dolls" series. I took inspiration on this series thinking about the many women "used" as dolls. It's a painting made with acrylics and lots of little pieces of paper on which you can read words and phrases scattered here and there. It is often like this when we really get close to the other person: we perceive their secret messages sometimes yes, sometimes no. To accomplish this technique I initially used "delicate" office paper in A4 size such as bills, receipts, invoices, bank statements, tax folders, business plans, etc. Then, during the compulsory quarantine due to COVID-19, having finished all the stocks of A4 paper to recycle, I began to shred the paper in the house and considered waste. So the latest works have a greater consistency and materiality due to the presence of paper less delicate than the simple A4 sheet. The paper of the packages of products purchased and consumed in everyday life, reappears in another form, avoiding the landfill: containers of flour, pasta, tins of tuna, toothpaste, medicines, ice cream, advertising flyers ... all paper that I turn into art giving my small contribution to save the world. This is sold unframed, ready to hang with a hook on the back. Please note: the frame in the picture is only a simulation; artwork is sold unframed. The surface has small reliefs and I love to caress it, feeling it... I also use acrylic resin in surface that gives a glossy effect and protect colors against sunshine and dust. Signed and dated in back. Each piece is securely packaged, wrapped and protected for shipping and will arrives in a wooden crate completely safe included the Certificate of Authenticity. Different light sources can give different colours on the photos. Sizes can be slightly different as I prepare the wooden frame myself, pull the canvas and spread it by fixing it on the frame.

Art to save the planet! I make my little part recycling materials in my arts, specially recycling paper. I love to paint abstract landscapes but in the last few years, I was been fascinated with portraits - whether an abstract subject or a real one. Painting is locking in the exact moment, so mine paintings are often a faded memory or something erased from time. Sometimes the objects of mine paintings are glimpses of walls that are eroded by time, with moss and mushrooms that grow over time. The time that passes inexorably is the main theme of my work. Because of mine background with sculptures, I'm familiar with the third dimension and the sense of touch. I applie these to mine paintings, which are characterized by touches that are wellperceived to the naked eye. The memory fades; time passes too quickly and there is no time to remember everything, all the details of a face, all the words heard. The art serves to remember, to leave a testimony of our existence. In my last works I'm using a mine own technique recycling office paper and day life paper such as bills, receipts, invoices, financial statements, Tax collection folders, business plans, magazines. This shredded paper become an artwork. During the compulsory quarantine due to COVID-19, having finished all the supplies of A4 paper to be recycled, I started shredding all the paper in the house considered waste. Thus the latest works have a greater consistency and materiality due to the presence of less delicate paper than the simple A4 sheet. The wrapping paper present in the products purchased and consumed in daily life, reappears in another form, avoiding landfill: containers of pasta, flour, cans of tuna, toothpaste, drugs, ice cream, advertising flyers...
