My Artist’s Statement
I have always believed that art restores to language the dimension of the "inexpressible" and the possibility of a silent universe that is visually immediate but rationally almost ungraspable.
Nevertheless, and in response to the conceptual demands of today’s world of art, here are a few hints, an attempt to help viewers to find their own approach to my work.
Somehow my aesthetic position is determined by the combination of several factors: my personal experience, emotions and feelings in relation to social issues, ethical questions, archetypes and symbols. I make use of complex methods to fill up the contents dictated by the subjective intellect, allowing the unconscious to have a significant role in the execution of the piece.
Being fascinated by the interplay between chance and reason in the way our lives are shaped, I transport this reality into my creative process. A chance sparks a plan. A plan, when executed, exposes us to new chances.
Neither order nor chaos alone is sufficient. This borderland is what I attempt to capture.
I transform the figures and forms to my own desire. I don’t have a naturalist or realistic ambition. My purpose is to awaken ideas and feelings, and to activate perceptual mechanisms in order to produce a wealth of associations.
Depending on the "combination of factors" mentioned above, I create a space profusely layered by many stages of color and form, but other times there is an easier path through my emotions and ideas.
Obviously, I am influenced by the time in which I live, and I respond to it; but if I have an obsession it is to remain faithful to the demands of my spirit, to be myself regardless of the current intellectual fashion.
As an artist in a new century, I feel like engaging myself in all possible mediums and/ or techniques available. I am a painter who dares to experiment with photography and digital technology as well, and I leave the door open to try new mediums according to my wishes and need for expression. I am more interested in experience and playing than I am in producing a signature image easy to recognize and sell.
