“ Her garden”

In our daily lives we are so busy that we have no time left to examine and listen to our inner world. But there is an inner need for our balance as entities, to try to find that lost time in our daily lives. We are looking to discover a place that offers a common view, but from a completely different perspective and transforms the ordinary into the unusual. The idea of a “secret garden”. The idea of a “secret garden” is an exploration of this interior,  of an indescribable place. A transformed image of reality and our world without end and beginning. In the garden, this light diffuses into the space, is incorporated into it, alters it and recreates images and areas that are undoubtedly personal. It is like air that gives all the elements of nature a freedom and autonomy.  The sea and the air become one, the soil and the fire are separated as independent images and become an integral part of an imaginary journey that seeks to explore the unpredictable. As a result, this garden creates inner quests, regardless of science and ethics.

“Her garden” (What are you looking for?

What are you looking for?

In our daily lives we are so busy that we have no time left to examine and listen to our inner world.  We all have a “big brother” inside us. A sneak peek through the keyhole to get a glimpse of other people’s lives. Even if we are completely opposed to it, at some point we enter this vortex of commentary unwittingly and whirl uncontrollably. It is much simpler to comment on someone else’s life and very complicated and difficult to deal with your own. need for our balance as entities, to try to find that lost time in our daily lives. We are looking to discover a place that offers a common view, but from a completely different perspective and transforms the ordinary into the unusual. The idea of a “secret garden”.         The idea of the garden is an exploration of this inner, indescribable place. A transformed image of reality and our world without end and beginning. In this garden, this light diffuses into the space, integrates it, alters it and recreates images and areas that are undoubtedly personal. It is like the air that gives all the elements of nature a freedom and autonomy that separates them as independent images and becomes an integral part of an imaginary journey that seeks to explore the unpredictable. Beyond what the sense of sight sees, this garden creates inner quests, independent of science and ethics. The answers are within us, as long as we let ourselves be free to reveal ourselves to us. I see myself, I don’t hide, I exist.

BIOFORMS

These figures refer to caterpillars, worms or underwater beings but with abstract, almost symbolic aesthetics. Textures and wavy forms make shapes look alive as if they are moving in a communication metaphor. Interaction or even conflict between two people from the same world but with a difference.

• Two, four or more spiral, organic forms reminiscent of larvae or sea creatures.
• (Contact. Symbiosis, Birth of dialogue). Multiple entities with a similar color. but with a different entity they seem to be in different stages of transformation or evolving interaction.
• (Transformation, impact, dialogue).  Bioforms with smooth flow and organic structure. Their meeting is never the same. Forms are turned, recreated.
•  Natural beings are subject to change. They become or cease to be.
• Matter remains, but the forms (Species) change.
•  Birth and decay are two aspects of the natural process. Book A, Chapter 4 of Aristotle’s “On Genesis and Decay”. “And genesis and decay happen to those in the making.” (Genesis and decay occur in things that are in the process of becoming.)

“We live in the world of genesis and corruption.” Aristotle wrote.

A world where nothing remains unchanged. Everything is born, flourishes, wears out and then gives way to something new.

The works in this section emerge as entities that belong neither to the past nor to the present. Leaf-shaped, fluid forms, sometimes resembling spirals of cells and sometimes winds wrapping around themselves. Every curve and every layer tells a transition, a transformation. It is a living form that tries to exist, to dissolve and to start again from scratch. They are not representations of nature but figures that are revealed as I paint and come to light.

Each work is an act of birth, conflicts, conflict of cohabitation, love and decay. Because after wear and tear there is the possibility of a new beginning. A rhythmic and pulsating world, where everything is born and worn out again towards new forms. The inspiration is drawn from organic forms, shapes and structures found in nature drawing elements from living organisms.

These works depict the evolution of life, change, transformation, as well as the beauty and complexity of nature. They emerge as entities that belong neither to the past nor to the present. Forms of leafy fluids, sometimes resembling spirals of cells and sometimes gusts of wind wrapping around themselves. In this perpetual pulse, matter is formed, it becomes root, fruit, flower, body and memory.

As I paint, I feel that the form is revealed to me every day differently as it evolves on the canvas with my gesture, as if it exists somewhere in the dark and wants to come out into the light. Forms are born where space twists, when every layer of color, every swirl is a birth that will be imprinted and take its place in space, because art is not a description of reality but an expression of the unconscious. In art, as in life, nothing remains stable. Forms emerge, melt and are reborn, and this results in some reminiscent of organisms and others of the visual language of the amorphous, when the form does not denote an object but a state of mind.

Sphere

Sphere of the existent or the non-existent?

Does it trap or empower?

This sphere, due to its brilliance, disturbs and becomes a toy in some hands which think they can play with it. But it’s always going to be different and stand out.

You can’t pile it up because it can roll.

It doesn’t adapt due to its shape.

It’s able to handle the pain because of its inner power.

It can fly.

A utopian space is created inside the sphere, which is beautiful and ethical, part of a fantasy or a dream.

A space of hope, sterilized of hate and violence, lies and injustice.

Sometimes the space is vulnerable, it bursts like a soap bubble and gets spread to the rest of the universe, and sometimes it’s hard and impenetrable like a turtle’s shell.

It’s a space within space, where if someone decides to fly inside of it and reach the highest point and completion, the catharsis comes and the pure beauty flows out to the rest of the universe.

World Journey

The order in the organization of space can be mapped. The map is the mirror of the world that changes its boundaries according to its movement.

There are many different components that can influence this change such as:

• From different cultures due to population migration

• From environmental pollution

• From the destruction of urban complexes due to war

• From the spread of industry

• From peaceful negotiations

With this series of my works I make a “journey” of the world in the universe.

The mapping of a new world in a spatial surrealistic reality, the regularity of which creates the sense of the familiar and at the same time the unfamiliar.

The “journey” of the new world from the bowels of the universe makes us wonder whether it will lead to its rebirth or to its destruction.
