The inability to copy the perfection of nature leads me to the desesculturas, located in the threshold of the beginning and the end of the work, trying the impossible: to melt the wood with aluminum, cement and iron. Something similar happens with utopia, that the further away from the possible greater influence is acquired, my desesculturas are placed between the previous and the later to the work, the border of the creative process, the half of the history, the unfinished story, etc. As Michael Foucault put it: "The transgression is a gesture that refers to the limit, the transgression and the limit, but in transgressing, in Bataille, does not consist in opposing the limit or deny it, but, on the contrary, in affirming it." My Desesculturas do not pretend to comply with anything, they do not seek to solve anything but to raise conjectures, occupy spaces, leave messages. My project covers painting, sculpture and also literature (fantastic stories and poetry), everything depends on the state of mind. I was born in a coastal town called Lagunillas but I currently live in the Venezuelan state of Trujillo.
