ARTIST STATEMENT As you will see, my work is lacking of a definable style, it is rather eclectic, jumping from figurative to abstract, what I call a nomadic style. I deliberately saunter from one form to another, creating pictures that are each one of them a different adventure: metaphysics, symbolism, an esoteric, expressive and mysterious cosmogony, sometimes blended into naïve humor to soften the transcendent. Works that transmit certain nostalgia of future. An invisible energy, childish at times, with certain eclectic spiritualism, building bridges between Eastern and Western cultures. I believe in a invigorating solar art that brings inner comfort, pleasure to senses. A necessary and urgent goal to paint, draw, photograph or film everything which rejects darkness and deadly forces. My work aims a radical and vital aesthetics research of energy, enhancing visual hospitality, based on warmth and color. These are allegories mostly born from my dreams, visualizations during meditation, mixing the shallow and the profane with the infinite space and the transcendence. “This wide range of interests allows the message to be construed in equivalent eclectic procedures, escaping any traditional classification because it mutates constantly. However, Prins´ work is not harmed by this confusion of styles, on the contrary this anarchy and temporality, rewards him with an unusual freedom of movement, very much appreciated by some of art critic colleagues upon giving him awards. He uses a variety of techniques which go from collage, sketches, painting (watercolor, oil) to digitalization and photography.” (Review by Marcos Ricardo Barnatan, Supplement Metropolis from the newspaper El Mundo) Denying the visual commitment thematic coherence, not wearing the coveted wedding ring with no particular aesthetic, but several, a stylistic debauchery. This certainly has been punished in the art world with ostracism. What really means to me art? Game and discipline, freedom and rebellion redoubled in a constantly reinventing of myself.
