THE BRIDGE, 12CM X 15 CM, MONOCOPY, 2022
"Through abstract language, the work suggests a symbolic architecture composed of planes, textures, and elements that evoke both the structural and the organic. The predominant palette of blues, violets, and greens reinforces an aquatic or dreamlike atmosphere, where forms float or intertwine as if in a state of suspension. The work invites us to pause in that intermediate space where opposites converge and are reconciled in a visual balance."
Landscape 2, 24CM X 30CM, MONOCOPY, 2022
"Pais is a monoprint that explores an internal universe, where organic forms intertwine as if they were biological structures, roots, or expanding tissues. In this work, the landscape does not refer to the outside world but to a sensorial, intimate, and almost microscopic territory. The warm shades—reds, golds, oranges, and violets—evoke life, transformation, and energy in constant motion.
The matter seems to flow and solidify at the same time, suggesting a vital process frozen in an instant: as if it were a cross-section of a living body or a fragment of earth seen from within. The textures and transparencies give the viewer the sensation of being immersed in a visceral landscape, where the geological and the organic coexist without clear boundaries.
This work invites us to look beyond the visible, toward what pulsates beneath the surface: a map of emotions, memories, or internal structures revealed through the fusion of technique, intuition, and matter."
Landscape 4, 24CM X 30CM, MONOCOY, 2022
"The landscape breaks down into organic, sinuous forms that evoke an interior rather than an exterior environment. The use of a warm palette—pinks, oranges, violets, and yellows—suggests a world in constant transformation, as if we were facing a living nature that beats, breathes, and reconfigures itself from within.
The curved lines and transparencies generate an almost anatomical framework, which could refer to roots, organs, or hidden paths. This landscape does not represent a recognizable place, but rather a spatial emotion, an abstract geography that emerges from within, perhaps a cartography of the soul.
The monoprint technique allows each stroke and overlay of color to have a unique, almost spontaneous character, capturing the ephemeral nature of the gesture and the elusiveness of the moment. The image seems to emerge from within, as if the material itself were seeking speech."
