MISTAKES

A visual exploration of my inner quest.

I paint to get in and out of my emotions.

It started as a search. Rummaging who I was at that moment through the colors. Spatula and acrylic paint is what I experimented with and learned to use to face an unknown world. Using them alongside geometry and figurative hints I found my method.

Then it evolved.

Layer upon layer until equilibrium is achieved. Mistake upon mistake to learn, to break in and out of the process. And of myself.

I started looking for references. Painting people I know or that inspired me, in particular in the last 5 years, helped me to take a deeper look at myself. It helped me to get in touch with who I was and who I was becoming. Examining them and myself to understand.
Then it became a natural act.

I paint as an introspective exercise, as a practice of growth and healing. I paint to explain this squared vision in which we live, which blinds us to believe that a label will give us eternal rest.

I paint to prove to myself that I can. To make mistakes and solve them. This is what my artworks are about, a flexibly figurative geometry. A jouney to my intimacy.

Una manifestación visual de mi búsqueda interna.

Pinto para entrar y salir de mis emociones.

Comenzó como una búsqueda. Hurgando quién era en ese momento a través de los colores. Pintura acrílica con paleta, aprendí a usarlas y me enfrenté a un mundo desconocido. Y empleándolas, la geometría y la insinuación figurativa me sirvieron como recursos.

Después fue evolucionando.

Capa sobre capa hasta conseguir el equilibrio. Error tras error para aprender, entrar y salir del proceso. Y de mí mismo.

Me dediqué a mirar mis referencias, esas que todos tenemos. Pintar a la gente que conozco o que me ha inspirado, sobre todo en los últimos 5 años, me ayudó a mirarme. A entrar en contacto con quien era y en quien me iba convirtiendo. A mirarlos y mirarme para encontrar.

Entonces se convirtió en un acto natural.

Pinto como ejercicio de introspección, como práctica de crecimiento y sanación. Pinto para explicar esa óptica cuadriculada en la que vivimos, que nos ciega hasta creer que una etiqueta nos dará el descanso eterno.

Pinto para demostrarme que puedo. Para cometer mistakes y solucionarlos. Esta es mi obra, una geometría flexiblemente figurativa. Un viaje a mi intimidad.
