Statement

Mateo's work is a reflection on the matter and support of painting. His works of abstract appearance emphasize the way they have been constructed, and their color appears as a derivative of this construction. The unusual use of the usual materials of painting (oil, canvas, stretcher) presents us with a traditional object of strange appearance. Paintings that do not look like paintings; paintings that have not been painted. In doing so, the artist invites us to put the category of painting in between it and forces the viewer to reflect on the material reality of the experience of art.
