La piedra casamentera Print

Painter and goldsmith born in Chile, graduated from Fine Arts. I have always felt attracted by images and the idea that everything can be created from their compilation. From this impression and from the recycling of images, I started painting different scenes, fictional scenarios, colourful and provocative, with the intention to trigger spectators to build a personal and creative process under their own experience in relationship to my work. According to this, my proposal follows an appropriationist line, in which the creation process is conceived from a rich mixture of languages. Once images are decontextualized, a digital procedure is applied in order to assemble them in a pictorial collage. The appropriationism and the extraction of the authorship give life to new and original images, implying an outcome that goes from the reflection of the art to a visual pleasure. This, of course, modifies the sense given by the original authors. The intention behind this is to transmit a new kind of plastic and conceptual experience, obtained from the world of publicity, history of art, and literature. The result obtained from the visual discourse is articulated from a variety of little fragments that come from the intervened mass-media, mostly with a digital nature, delivering as a final outcome the resemantization of the artistic work.
