Artist Statement:
Concrete painting
The structural composition of
the drawing is in the limit of
the line, the line that has
origin in the geometric figure
of the circle, "because every
straight line is a limit of a
circle." That pictorial
architecture is configured in
delimited plans where color
has an echo and
representation. Color sets the
tone of the musicality in the
painting. It is applied within
the dynamics of alternate
rhythms with incessant beating
of the brush on the canvas.
The predominant texture
resulting of that echoed
action also reveals a subtle
depth as a consequence of the
transparency of the oil paint.
This constant dialogue with
the line, form and the light
on canvas, gives dimension to
the abstract idea
materializing it in a concrete
element, which is the concrete
painting.

Artist Reviews:
Pictorial poetry
Roberto Silva's pictorial
poetry employs geometric
figures to build vibrant
compositions. This is achieved
not only by the combination of
shapes but also by the way
colors are used. The result,
instead of being a mass of
cold matter, is an artwork
that reflects the artist's ...
