“I decided not have full control of the images.
The method I’m using Paintings was intentionally developed in order to obstruct me to predicting in full the final image of the work. The process leads the work to me.
The size of my body and gestures are defining the surface space. The action of dripping paint in the surface becomes prove of my existence; the marks of a certain body inhabit a certain space in a specific time.
For the reason that I’m not actually in full control of what’s happening sometimes I feel that I’m allowed to participate in a ritual, a dialog between the gesture, the surface and the canvas.
Some symbols impose themselves as part of my vocabulary, and I'm now exploring them in an intuitive and expressive way. In Paints and Printed Monotypes.
As evidence of life, and testimony of my actions, the work became a way to immortality in a mortal world.”
Frequently participates in National and International exhibitions
Works represented in several National and International Collections.
