Strange Weather Painting

Several very different worlds coexist in me, which sometimes conflict with me: the passion for a traditional, Renaissance, religious, beautiful art, and the search to adapt that genre to the elements that affect my life today. Feminism, my Latin American identity, the militancy for art to be considered a decent job, are political facts that reshape my way of seeing the world, and therefore, coexist in my work. As Felix González Torres said: “there is no such thing as inert or apolitical art”. Some time ago I discovered a wonderful object that changed my perspective: the round frame. What a circle transmits is much more than I can describe, but I am convinced that the value of the support totally enriches the complete work. I work patiently, erratically, and alone. I'm not blown away by the amount of detail, but my biggest challenge was the resizing, because so much white overwhelmed me. I used to use a lot of reference photos, but I'm slowly learning to let go and allow myself to imagine. I consider that my body of work goes through several different themes, and yet with similarities: the sublime beauty of the sky, the delicacy of a body in contact with another's skin, the flash of light attacking a glass vase, a self portrait looking me straight in the eye. The intermediate waiting space, the moment before touching, the intimacy of roundness, the impact of a blue that looks at us and that we recognize. It could be love: not romantic, but as a simple and detailed gesture, like an ode to a night sky, like a brushstroke of light. Love for nature, for your neighbor, for beauty itself. Feelings spent a long time muted under the rules of conceptual art, and I try to retrace that path: what moves us, the sentimental, is just as important (and political) as an intellectual analysis.
