Artist Statement for Anton Olea

Artist Statement
The concept of the imagination and feeling of astonishment are lost in the tridimensional space of surrealist dreams and the technological world of reality. The world that surrounds us, such as the television and computer screens order the imaginary world to construct the 21 century. We are trapped without being able to seek freedom and instead we are in a cruel and alienated world.
Humans always seek to recreate the imagination, such as the establishment of order.
Fantasy images and connections with human beings are hypnotized into the absent of reality and are questioned to about life. The forces of power, domination and universal machinery utilize us to become aspects of ‘production gear’.
My world of fantasies are placed in two realities on the canvas: one is the creation of a relationship between communication and images, in particular the technological productions. The second are being evoked into the tiny organisms of nature and mixed with the computational world, thus creating a different image.
I recycle objects of the disposable machinery and reconstruct them as a visual representation between what is the natural and the technology.
This complex functionality of nature is the pattern which man creates and uses. To transform life and use technological machinery, that influence humans to turn to dependency. Suggesting that these tools are what paces humans to develop progress and speed life into the construction and reproduction.
Assuming that these objects will create ‘ease and happiness” for the modern soul.
Nature and man walk in distinctive paths, one looks for the regeneration of life and thus lives its infinite species, however also man destroys and profits these resources without realizing the consequences for the future humanity.
