About The Artwork

One day, when Hermaphrodite decided to go out on a tour of the Greek lands, he went to a lake to cool off due to the excess heat, and started swimming naked. A nymph, spirit of that lake, when observing her precious naked body, felt an immediate attraction towards him and tried to conquer him, but the young man resisted. The nymph hugged him tightly and dragged him to the bottom; As she struggled with him, she pleaded with the Gods not to separate their bodies. The Gods granted him wish and fused both bodies into one, giving birth to a double-sex being, HermaphroditA.

Some time ago, interest was awakened to investigate how to represent different sensations, situations or perceptions in a physical way in order to show the public another angle from which to observe everything around us and how it affects us, how the environment embraces us and its changes. To this end I mainly make use of sculpture since, due to my professional experience, I see the composition and dimensioning of a work of art in a different way when sculpting it than when painting it, although I do not dismiss the latter in some of the representations. Due to my experience with materials, I use lightweight materials such as extruded polystyrene, plaster or aluminum. It is in the use of color where I differ more with the usual art, liking to use metallic or neon colors, colors with brightness of the 21st century, believing that colors have to evolve along with civilization. My current line of reflection is aimed at highlighting the involutions of the human being; because we keep wondering about women's rights, because we continue deforesting and polluting disproportionately. In addition to studying the changes of light or space with the forms, of course!
