The beginning of the dream for creating this show started at a life pondering moment, at a moment of my understanding that the only thing we carry with us are the beautiful energies. To leave a legacy of consistency, of persistence, of struggle for life…of breathing again and drawing.
Our artworks make us eternal.
An arduous study of observing the human being, his or her interior, the one of others, and attempting an interpretation through trace and humidity. Finding his or her essence, his or her soul, his or her spirit, as an attempt to go beyond the flesh and bones.
The trace is life, you can feel this when you see how it follows narrow and broad paths through the paper, albeit continuing its infinite journey.
Understanding it, contemplating it tirelessly; the trace, grasp what it talks about, tells us and breaths.
Works in which a trace follows the movement of bones, muscles that show me the way, the form, the rhythm to represent it; to feel through the line. The line should show a balance and with the humidity provides an influx of life that continues forever existent.
