a) Aesthetic language: my body of work is the development of a
own aesthetic language built by a mixture of media
such as painting, sculpture and installation. The medium chosen is a
vehicle to materialise intended ideas, so that the choice
of the media depends on the materials that best harmonise with the
the intention of the ideas.
b) Investigation: A) Theoretical study B) Practice
in my daily life of learned theory. C)
Change in my consciousness of being. D) My work is born from the
experience of the transformation of my self-consciousness.
What I understand "I feel it", what I feel "I do it", what I do
"I am."
From the "I am" is born my work.
c) Producing spiritual knowledge: the content of the speech of
my work involves topics such as the sense of Unity, the inner
knowledge, and the intimate relationship between opposites, the dissolution of duality,
the connection between the macrocosmos-microcosmos; thus as the inner enlightenment of being.
d) Influences: my first influences were the paintings of Francis
Bacon, the work of David Lynch and Bataille's concept of eroticism.
Since 2012 there is a new began in my life and work when I discover the light of the Hermetic philosophy primarily by ideas and practices of Piotr Ouspenski, from that discovery it will be marks strongly the one that to do of my artistic practice in the spiritual awakening of man, through study and practice from branches of Hermetic philosophy such as Kabbalah, Gnosis, Mysticism and Metaphysics among others. As well as the study of the mystic and austrian artist Elias Rubenstein.
