My work is an exploration of the world as I see it at a walking pace. It is an ongoing collection of observations and extrapolations derived from wanderings on foot. My chosen way of expressing these thoughts is through drawing and painting. My work starts out as an investigation of more traditional drawing and painting techniques, which is gradually buried beneath marks, additional elements and methods that induce vibrations in the visual. This in turn creates a sort of archeology for the viewer to deconstruct and through this process come to feel more informed about the way that the environment and where we dwell is part of our experiences. Additionally my own thoughts can become paintings, where found images and my imagination over a period of time lead to complicated and layered works in themselves, works surreal and strange. Both the observed worlds and imagined hint at the assumption of an insight into the other.

Me gusta tu trabajo. Creo que tu originalidad consiste en no dejarte arrastrar por un mero intento de replicar la realidad. Consigues captar el ensueño y la magia. ¡Enhorabuena!
