Like most of the children in Mexico, I was raised in the Catholic tradition, then a fascination for the ancient religious iconography was so obvious. Since young, far from being interested in the sunday liturgy mass, my gaze was focused on those painful madonnas of European origins, the Mexican baroque its exaggeration in the images and in the omnipresent figure of the Virgin of Guadalupe. Later I lived and studied in central Europe for 5 years. And i was so obsessed with the Medieval cathedrals, icons and ancient jewellery. In this research I start to incorporate as a support some illustration, kind of an “academic” type of drawing with subjects inspired from different periods of the art history mixed with contemporary themes, mainly other artists. Once this “first layer” is finished, mainly made of graphite, i use it as a “surface” of the canvas to return to my original abstract and calligraphic technique. I consider this final phase as the most important and the main part of the work. This calligraphy on these almost religious images could represent a kind of sand Tibetan Buddhist mandala tradition (Del-Tson-Kyl-Khor)

Serrano explores the relationship between geometry and dynamic forms to represent the passage of time in a person’s life, often shaped by challenges, interactions, and encounters. The incorporation of his self-created calligraphy describes secret poems with healing ideograms. At the same time René produces his main abstract series, nourishes another creative work in his studio: a portrait series.
