About

There is a distorted narrative, a history, on the matter of my paintings. The use of color is the first of a series of choices: stroke, mark, scratch, sign... all of them build a history that will remain in the absence of the subject.

Every gesture leads to a hidden image waiting to be found; to an attempt of comprehending the nature of its presence.

My images are in a state of ongoing decay. It is a result of altering the system of traditional representation through the methodical annihilation of the subject matter. It is, in fact, a process of gradually distancing from the customary motif.
