Estatement: Como artista me valgo de la fotografía como medio de expresión inmediato con el fin de elaborar un discurso que más allá de establecer comparaciones cree estrechez de pensamientos que acorten distancias. El poder abordar de forma paralela el caribe y el mediterráneo como latitudes y referentes culturales me da el privilegio de hacer en el tiempo y tomar un lugar sintiéndome parte del proceso de migración y transculturación que nos aproxima desde hace siglos. Desde el retrato y la fotografía documental como genero pretendo espejar lo común que a mi criterio caracteriza a ambas realidades. Nuestro instinto innato y soñador y la necesidad de creer en un mañana mejor sin ansias de libertad son temas o directrices que permiten alinear de forma subjetiva dichas realidades. Relacionar mi percepción entre estos contextos que comparto a destiempo mediante el empleo de un diverso registro de valores monocromáticos como símil vincula mi discurso con lo formal. Los retratos recreados como lechos de sueños y las tomas de ciudades o lugares emblemáticos que recreo caracterizan y connotan la esencia de aquellos valores e inquietudes que nos iguala pese a nuestras diferencias culturales y costumbres. Espejar utilizando botellas como recipientes metafóricos que conservan la nostalgia y postergan la esencia y la tradición de ambas realidades como referentes de un presente fascinante y convulso que a la vez me resulta inquietante y lleno de incertidumbre.

My name is Reinaldo Ortega, I come from Cuba and I currently reside in Spain. I consider myself a visual artist who opts for the large format. Since 2005 I have been developing my work, consolidating a discourse that starts from documentary photography as an immediate support and that, after its edition and printing on canvas, I intervene with painting techniques. I lean towards the aesthetics of Pop Surrealism and Street Art. I relate several graphic and pictorial techniques in order to achieve a creation process that evolves along with my ideas. Characterizing our time is the pretext that I approach as a starting point for my discourse, giving free rein to the subjectivity of a humorous and abrupt graph. Color in its greatest splendor is the binder that gives meaning to the absurd relationship between popular characters and universal icons that I decontextualize and semantize at will through art.
