About the Artist

Originally in 1978, my art was mainly semi-figurative. It evolved to become completely abstract with the prominence of the mark on the canvas. The theme prevalent in my paintings is the image of the couple conjugated in different shapes and forms. These figures can be grasped at different angles of vision. It is through movement and motion that they appear and disappear suggesting the fusion and divorce of the human couples.
