ABOUT THE ARTWORK
Canvas and acrylic seem to have been consolidated as the foundation on top of wich I can add all sorts of elements, and this painting is a great example of this elements layering. I've used some jewlery, a scarf, a watch, and even some money to create the collage, therefore the pictorical scene. Finding new objects to compose the paintings is something I really treasure and I enjoy taking my time to curate various objects for this purpose. This painting makes me think of the way that we sometimes start our days or our weeks: it's only monday and you already feel like you’re about to be cut to pieces and eaten alive, like the guy in the painting. Working all day, everyday, might be a contemporary parallel of Prometheus’ curse: as he would’ve had his liver eaten every day, just to wake up the next day with the organ restored to keep that torture going, our battle is waking up every day to live automatically the same (boring) journey, which can also be despairing. We’ve all been there at some point, but there’s always a solution, since we’re not actually under a curse from a greek god (we just suffer a little from capitalism).

I'm an Artist, a Writer and I've been through Political Exile in the 70s, so I've done and seen a lot. I believe being out there in the world with a bit of recklessness and nowhere - therefore, everywhere - to go, has everything to do with the freedom one needs to express one's self through art. I started painting at the age of 7 and then life led me through twisted paths. Like it always does. When it comes to the pursuit of happiness, I found out that you shouldn’t have an ultimate goal - you’re never lost when you don’t know where you wanna get to. I found joy in painting because it became a way for me to escape being a slave of production and consumption, and a way of letting the chaos we all carry inside flow to the surface. I became a basement artist and only after many years being chased by imaginary shadows, I now own a fresh, bright atelier, surrounded by green. My style went from innocuous abstractionism to figurative with an urge for abstraction. By making no difference between the reality each one of us creates and the one that exists in the Universe, I was finally driven to the nonsense. And that’s what you’ll see in my paintings.
