ABOUT THE ARTWORK

. La manipulación del pixel como módulo de la imagen digital es en primera instancia un recurso que me permite restar una gran cantidad de atributos a la imagen, llegando en algunos casos a la abstracción total del tema, lo que a su vez genera nuevos sentidos e interpretaciones en sus aspectos formales y aun bidimensionales. En un segundo ejercicio entrópico ya no reductivo sino más bien de ennoblecimiento, los elementos compositivos conseguidos (pixeles) son llevados a un ámbito tridimensional, reintegrándoles un sólido carácter lleno de relieve y aspectos táctiles, reforzados por las prolijas condiciones del color. La realidad ordinaria rápidamente está siendo desplazada por su representación filtrada en los medios virtuales, fijada en la psiquis de millones, a pesar de significar toda una revolución en el flujo de la información y el conocimiento, también es un hecho que gran parte del comportamiento que engendra este fenómeno tecnológico-visual resulta patológico precisamente por esa suplantación de lo natural, que empieza a percibirse como algo distante y carente de belleza e interés, llámese natural a todo aquello digno de ser contemplado y respetado en toda su sencillez.

Since when could I account for a conscious creative process ... maybe it would be with my sketchbook of robot faces inspired by Maziger Z (Japanese anime from the 80's) when I was seven years old, which in spite of me got lost in I am in the midst of childhood comings and goings, but I remember obsessively undertaking and being fascinated by all the geometric possibilities offered to me by those squared sheets that did not get to see great achievements in mathematics, fortunately or unfortunately the diastole of my left hand I was there and the giant was also (papà) the first and only artist that I could say that I know from the foundations of the sanguine, a severe, rigorous and contradictory adult, a monster, who trained and stimulated me regarding what concerns us (the exercise, transit and procedure of practices for the liberation of the human spirit called art), this represented inhabiting and absorbing from an early age the experiences pro pias from an advertising and Screen workshop back then, full of appetizing and suggestive gallons of paint in an infinity of synesthetic colors for me, full of smell and taste were almost like food, the mountains of residual material (garbage) that produced "the signature" it was my concern to eliminate them by means of epic burns with thinner and varsol fragrance, already with red eyes from the "healthy" smoke I was ready to enter the boring photography laboratory full of cigarette fog produced by the giant and that was revealed with the red light turned on so as not to enrage the big-headed insect (negative enlarging machine), for the first time I associated darkness with silence, it was a "sacred" space due to the monster's irate temperament, we lived In a small city, we would walk back home, the giant walking fast, I was going for a marathon in search of my squared notebook.
