| 关于此艺术家 |
My process,
more often than not,
starts with ‘found’ images, usually from the press.By deconstructing the elements of such images, and repeating and mixing their elements I try to uncover a buried semiotic, and possible emotional attachment.
In this process of understanding and appropriating images, I start a series that might go on for years, as series permeate each other developing narratives within bodies of work.
This approrpiation of somebody else's image, manifests in paintings, drawings, sculptures, site-specific projects... In my work, and as a result of the continuous repetition of dissected elements, disparate elements and techniques intertwine , seeking to provoke an unique hermeneutic.

Part of the Sports Series, is the third timber piece I ever made. Ana Maria Pacheco inspired me to get a chainsaw. I did and risk life and limb but I learned to carve with the monster. The painted timber responds, I suppose, to a Spanish - Latin-American tradition of painted religious images. |
