ABOUT THE ARTWORK

A painting, mainly matérica where natural and artificial light acquire a significant role. In my work I use the light as a transforming element of matter, the essence of painting, from the work itself. Neon both when it is switched on, or off, enabling a new transformation of aesthetic appeal, altering the shape, color and light. They are circular material painting works. Tiny, monochrome, simple, but intensely complex in its internal forms, gestural painting process of planets. Light plays a key role and this is where the color transforms and work. In my work I use endlessly repeated claims in our society: for sale, for rent. We claim to bring new occupants to distant, imaginary, uninhabited planets ... neocolonialism that we´ll live in a not too distant future and that takes us away from our returning us to our essence as nomadic animal origin. In my work endlessly repeated messages employment in our society: for sale, for rent (for sale, for rent). We claim to bring new tenants to distant, imaginary planets, uninhabited ... neocolonialism that live in the not too distant future and that takes us away from our home by returning to our essence as nomadic animals.

From a contemporary perspective through abstract languages, close to Arte Povera and Materic Art, in which I combine tradition and innovation. As a versatile creator, my artistic work explores different methods (sculpture, painting, photography, installation, video). Within an abstract style but full of symbolism, I have given great relevance to the material substratum of the work. The marked conceptual sense, where the material support transcends its state and provokes a profound analysis, should be highlighted. Chromatic austerity is a characteristic element of my work: reducing my palette to a very limited range of colours, based on ochres, blacks and reds, with which to create works of great chromatic contrast and powerful visual impact. I am greatly interested in the use and re-use of materials with a strong industrial stamp, such as Corten steel, aluminium, cement and glass, which stand out due to the experimentation, the special, formal and interim analyses, the perception, the theoretical development and the public sphere, as well as delving into new media and technological innovation. My vital, intellectual and artistic inquisitiveness has led me to explore a large part of the world, where, at the same time, I have developed many of my projects, embracing the essence of each territory, to reinterpret it and decipher it in my works. Projects, trips and life experiences, of marked contrast and complementarity, such as stays of several months in Washington and New York, creation and exhibitions in Mexico City, research projects in Puerto Rico, conferences in Tokyo, in situ works creation for collectors in Qatar, projects in Indonesia, etc. Experiences in Asia, the Middle East, America and Europe are influences that have spread to my work and creative processes. Private collections, institutions, galleries, curators, critics and the media have trusted and looked into my work, which, from my beginnings, has been characterised as being personal, intense, consistent and on the border between tradition and innovation.
