My art reflects
what comes out of my sensorial experiences coupled with my imagery.
To me, art is a combination of physical, geographical and social
realities combined with artists inner and psychological
explorations.Nature attracts me. When I am in nature, I can feel
a strong presence around, I let myself be caught by this spirit
and a door can be opened, images come from outside going into
my brain and are transformed into a mixture of combined expressions
and
impressions.
When they are transferred to the canvas or any other medium, they
take meaning by themselves.
I find these images in things suspended in the air or in the water.
Other times they come from the reflections of the spectrum of
light in the atmosphere, and the final product comes out of my
internal emotions, imagination. Altogether; nature, the social
environment, anatomy charts, etc., a fusion of different elements
which represent the experience.
Also, I have used body images, from the organs that form a system,
until the basic cellular units, as a source of forms, colors and
textures to enrichment of the works, because to me, they are elements
that represent the inner human nature.
Heartbeat, liver functions, the skeleton system or the respiratory
apparatus, all these vital processes that are out of our conscious
control, are very interesting to take like part of my language
in the works. Some of my objectives are to connect the individual
with his (or her) own inner functions and find something extraordinary
in the ordinary life activities.
The technical part of my work is important too. I like to use
a pallet of strong and vibrant colors on a thick canvas. The lights
and shadows show many waves of light and a varied toning, which
produce different mental effects to the viewer. I have no pre-determined
vision of the final painting. I follow where the energy leads
me, and then attempt to focus that energy to a final result.
