Somerscales #2 Painting

I have a degree in visual arts from the Catholic University of Chile. My work focuses on the relationship between the human being and nature; in the distance that has been generated between these by the conditioning exerted by contemporary life. Distance that is directly proportional to the socioeconomic situation of each subject. In this way, my research addresses concepts such as segregation, overcrowding, memory and power, guiding my work towards my political, ethical and aesthetic concerns, often from the relationship of the person with the landscape and the limits proposed by the capital among them. I believe that the link to the landscape in my work is a pretext, which is very useful to unite the origin of the concept and its historical development, with what is currently required: Contribute to the quality of people's life framework and maintain the character of the places. And, from this, I propose these landscapes denote the great differences that exist between social classes, always invisible and confusing. Differences of fundamental order, since the great thinkers of our history believed that the human world is inherent to the locus amoenus, so it proposes an inequality, in addition to material, spiritual. I want to suggest, with works that aspire to reality for the truths that history and non-history provide, the development of entangled social problems and, as in science, according to Paul Dirac's definition, "take complicated concepts and try to make them easy "; Make understandable issues that for lack of symbolism and historical elaboration, certainly, lack importance in favour of a economic model, being in my opinion a fundamental background for the restoration of a Latin American identity. Soy licenciado en artes visuales por la Universidad Católica de Chile. Mi trabajo se centra en la relación entre el ser humano y la naturaleza; en la distancia que se ha generado entre estos por el condicionamiento ejercido por la vida contemporánea. Distancia que es directamente proporcional a la situación socioeconómica de cada sujeto. De esta forma, mis investigaciones abordan conceptos como la segregación, el hacinamiento, la memoria y el poder, orientando mis trabajos hacia mis preocupaciones políticas, éticas y estéticas, a menudo desde la relación de la persona con el paisaje y los límites propuestos por el capital entre ellos.
