ARTIST STATEMENT

 My artwork is about the Universe and its unity in the infinite diversity of elements. I explore the multiplicity of the Universe depicting. 1) Its juxtapositions between chaos and harmony. 2) Its constant change and movement. 3) Each of its parts containing the whole. The combination of all this components creates a visual multiplicity that I call Energies. 

The variety of elements in my abstract paintings are several energies vibrating simultaneously. I describe these energies of the Universe through highly saturated colors to generate optical effects,, variety of gestural brushstrokes to create a sense of overall rhythmic movement and superposition of shapes to produce the illusion of tridimensional space.

My paintings have two readings: A first one that comes like a blow, in which all areas clamor in unison at the top of their lungs. And a second one, more contemplative in smaller areas, when the viewer realizes that each painting is in fact the sum of its parts, what is to say, of various smaller paintings, both possible and openly suggested by the work in question.

Each part of one same work of art is strong enough and different from the rest. Several moments are visualized and expressed with diverse techniques. The selection of the colors and shapes in each contrasting plane corresponds to an emotional, psychological and physical registered moment.
