Hugo Barroso

Mexican artist Switzerland-based.

My name is Hugo Barroso, I am a visual artist.

My artwork lies in the concurrence of art and invention.

Words like nature, life, language, philosophy, science and technology sound like poetry to me. My artwork lies also in the love and care for these words.
But if my artwork is the product of these beautiful reasonable ideas, it is also true that it is an automatism, a reflex, like crying or laughing.
For me art is a conditioned reaction, it is intuition working thru a filter of knowledge. Art is an exquisite automatism, it is an exquisite way to laugh and cry, it is a very refined way of instinct that helps us to perceive and react towards reality.
