About The Artwork

These series of paintins, presented in my portfolio, are some kind of intimate portraits. The title of these series, “Between books, between dreams”, refers to the time between asleep between awake. That confused moment in which I don´t know what reality is. It is also about the changes produced in my mind when reading a new good book. I´m interested in reality, in the question of what reality is. These are portraits of teenagers in that moment of life when there are many doubts, in which it´s not known what to do and everything is uncertain, unclear. These paintings emerged, on one hand, because of my interest in painting some interior scenes with teenagers reading, resting or sleeping. On the other hand there is a relationship between these paintings, some drawings with the same title and others made some years ago with the same girls when they were children. I guess I am searching something in relation with time, movement, uncertainty and changes. In these works there is also a reference to the past, to my adolescence, when there were no digital books. These series of works are also a sort of homage to painters and writers (Henry James, Matisse, Hockney) who have influenced my work and changed my way of seeing the world. There is also my interest in portrait, more in a universal way than in an individual way. The starting point of these paintings was taking some pictures. First I made some photographs of some friends of my son lying in sofas in my living room, trying to recreate, like in a theater, the past time shared with my sisters. Time of reading, talking, staying together doing nothing. Then, from the photographs, like a reference, I made these paintings.This painting is made on acid free paper
