His works, made in big formats, are the result of formal explorations and experimentations with a variety of diverse materials and techniques, having as antecedents experiences with visual artistic contexts appropriating medias and expressive modes for the construction of an autonomous visual discourse, in which emotion, thinking and imagination mix in a territory of quotes and intertextuality references irreducible to a specific time and / or space, but passing within a baroque and eclectic strainer as artist to testify their time.

The Redundancy of the Pendulum

or the Deep Secrets of Man

My artistic proposal is being defined toward the abstract media of art as a pretext to discourse on a variety of dissimilar mysteries and enigmas, which have always constituted major inquiries and questions regarding man’s awareness and worries, which persist in contemporary time and become unresolved issues and problems with regard to existence in terms of the subjects cyclically returning as redundancies.

This is a matter of cumulated issues and questions in collective imageries, the uncertainty of the entropies of message codes, the recreation of the contents off esoteric things, sometimes secrets, the Aquarian Conspiracy esoteric theory, metatextuality around facts and characters as well as the meaning of quantum physics in the building of reality in the people.

This irruption about abstraction as a tendency is not as much ascribed to abstraction as something only purely visual and / or objective, but instead related to a multiplicity of influences of diverse styles and tendencies in the artistic contemporary context, letting me express such conceptual and aesthetic issues in my own particular form.
