Developments

"Art is the ability to reveal the truth. Throughout my artistic career, I have always been concerned with creating an interpretation, a sense, a meaning. I imagine my painting as a mirror, where I project what is projected in me (I am like a mirror - Ray Smith). I have developed a language that traces a complex path, which forces the viewer's eyes to scroll through the unusual images that I combine.

Ephemeral and rudimentary constructions, made of sticks connected by ropes, fill the scene where some niches or cutouts overlap. These archaic constructions, of dubious and unstable balance, configure efforts, attempts at architectural solutions with impossible structures. These are failed attempts. Projects that did not work. Impossible solutions.
However, the elements of nature remain unchanged. All this is indifferent to the succession of tides, clouds, storms, trees, forests."
