ARTIST STATEMENT
Since always, along with the landscape or objects, I have been interested in the human face in which light reveals a unique subjectivity of experiences and emotions, a condensed and defined personal history in facial features.
Following this interest I have made a series of portraits, in the pursuit of which I have come to discover that for many human beings their facial expression was broken by pain, frustration, exclusion, violence, etc. This breakdown of the face came to the fore in my interest, giving me a feeling of tenderness that has led me to carry out the work generically FACES WITHOUT A FACE. For which, I have developed geometric shapes in which a face is hardly intuited because it lacks the essential elements that constitute it.
Flat shapes in which the stroke and color are applied directly on a neutral background or in some cases the suggestion of solitude or isolation in a desolate space.
This work, which has taken me several years, I have done in oil, watercolor, drawing, engraving and collage, and even combining two or more of these techniques, on wood, canvas, burlap, paper, cardboard, with their primers and textures.
Recently, in an experimental phase, I have worked on sculptures using iron waste materials.
