"Crocodile eating woman" Painting

Painter, Lawyer, Entrepreneur and Environmentalist. I believe that art should motivate the viewer to think about the non-obvious, to look beyond the immediate experience that the work causes to the public. My exploration is precisely the use of obvious scenes including: portrait, still life and landscape. Using these traditional topics as a simple support where I add the non-obvious. I use the simple form in my painting as a canvas to then focus on the sub-text of the work. Thus, I do not consider the "characters” used as stylized people, for me they are simply forms to which I add drama, color, emotions, atmospheres. Whenever I face my work I do it thinking about abstraction. While it is true that my pieces appear to be a stylization of recognizable figures reflected in a style that could be defined as expressionist, I consider them abstract works. I approach the figure of a woman or the shapes that make up a landscape as an empty format in which I develop my abstract, colorful and conceptual work. Georg Baselitz uses humanoid, upside-down figures in his work, thus he gives value to their form and decreases the importance of the semiotic. In my work, I do not paint a simple inverted figure, I let the elements keep their semiotic value, but I understand the forms as "multiplicities" as Gilles Deleuze describes, where a symbol has multiple meanings. In this way, I intervene with the form as a symbol that I capture in the canvas. I emphasize some of the multiplicities, generating a visual and conceptual process of abstraction of a vibrating nature. Actually I do not mind the formal language that I use in my paintings, sometimes it can be somewhat cubist, and sometimes I discover that it turns out naive, expressionist or caricaturist. To me this is just the evident beginning of my paintings.
