“I am not a man of writing, I am a man of drawing and as such, I tell stories that reflect my state of mind. Drawings flow instinctively without following a rationale. These expressions give beauty and variety to my drawings in which I find my thoughts. My drawings are not the result of predefined thoughts or sketches but on the contrary, from the beginning, they will evolve into a final piece. They emerge as a sequence of intuitive actions, a process of decision-making at the moment of the creation. This gives to each of my drawings its own life as individual moments at a specific time. I am fascinated seeing when my thoughts are translated into a visual piece.
I have a particular sensitivity for abstract drawings that can sometimes suggest architectural spaces, moments, and figurative ideas; the final interpretation is open to the spectator. Colours and geometry are the constant elements that I work on within all my drawings. I use them in a playful manner that creates its rhythm and representation of time. My pieces have the concept of time embedded in them. Each one represents a life expansion of a series of events that are not meant to be capture or framed as singular ones, rather as collections of events realized in a chain of action thoughts at a specific time.
Abstraction is very important to me. Abstract thinking, lines and forms do not have any heavy meaning of human culture, but everyone sees what they want to see in them giving each line or forms the weight it has as a reflection of their own culture. As an individual, I don’t want to be framed or categorize, and my work portrait that idea. My work it is a conclusion of a specific time that will never happen again. It is an expression of that moment within any alterations. Our life as we know it is a linear event. But my drawings grow, expand, mutate, and transform throughout their life until they just die.”
