Africa Aycart

When I talk to people I realize that their greatest concerns are derived from the past or in many cases imagining an uncertain future, when in fact, if we lived intensely in the present, none of them would affect us. Consequently, my work becomes suggestive and evident at the same time. Even in an unconscious way, it makes the viewers place themselves in the present, capturing their attention and freeing them of their worries and frustrations, by living the moment.

At times in my work I represent this concept in the format of a pixel. Having gathered knowledge of classical techniques, now I free myself from all those inheritances and immerse myself in the wonderful world of screens that have taken me countless hours into the study of photography and with which I have managed to confuse painting and photography almost without realizing it. Like the forces of creation of the expanding universe, the further you move away from it, the greater and smaller it becomes at the same time.
