Painting is the subject itself. There is no pre-existing image that guides my process. The painting shows both how the work is produced and its result, making evident that any painting is a material act in which the process takes a prominent place.
The composition finds its rhythm, space and time, where nothing ceases or stops until it feels right. A protocol will guide any given work along a pre-defined stucture. But in the painting process, unexpected elements are introduced and will complete my intention until a balance is found.
The recent use of stripes conjugates at the same time the personal imprint and the distancing. The use of special tools, cut brushes or stencils, introduces randomness into the thickness of the lines or the spaces between the lines. They have their own imprint independent from mine.
