Statement
I always contrast from paint transparency and opacity, elements to play identities and compose structures. In all the proposals, the arrangement of materials and the value of the surface-s have a high interest in touch, the play of unveil and the nuances of light. An experimentation deployed in parallel towards fragile supports. The poetics of the touch of the tracing paper assists in a network of lines and threads that come to link what is sensed from geographical and urban environments.
The processual dialogues with the artisan and requires a manual skill to express different languages. There are analogies in proposals with personal photographs and research aimed at finding the poetics of paper and its fragility, as well as dialogues with oriental art.
