GEN Print

“Gen” is the outcome of Irving Ramo’s continuous research through his curiosity for language. In this series, he shows his relevant contact with other disciplines such as anthro- pology and geometry. He makes use of these tools by inte- grating them in his study of the technicality of classic oil painting and the freedom of contemporary design aesthe- tics. This piece invites the spectator to be part of physical spaces where temporalities are not strictly outlined. There are solid atmospheres, but emptiness can also be expe- rienced. Sunken by inertia, the characters live the transfor- mation of the matrix that contains them, and by acknowle- dging themselves within it, they experience their natural uniqueness. Identities as signs: fluctuating and unrepeatable, they take over people’s internal and external space. They shape themselves into glyphs, plane symbols, some with zoo- morphic characteristics, and others seem to be construc- ted in a time far from the present. “Gen” derives from employing a symbiosis of color study, geometry and mor- phology. Nevertheless, it also portrays the invisible: the power of heritage, communication, and the prevalence of an eternally fluctuating energetic web.
