About The Artwork
I remember when I was a young artist in the Dominican Republic struggling to sell my paintings, lucky enough to pay very low rent thanks to my family but not that lucky with the electric bill. It was unbelievable costly specially when we had so many black outs and interrupted electrical services several times during the days and nights. However, the bill was always the same, like the meters were installed as decoration, a very ugly one, in front of the houses without any relation of cost to service. As an older person I believe the energy should be free, just like health care should. I am sure the technology has been here for a long time but anyone who dare create something with free energy technology just get disappeared or forceful encourage to stop by the one percent that control the people of earth. The idea for this work came in one of my trips to the Dominican Republic, as I was looking at all the cables above the houses, it brought my attention back to my times as a young artist. I imagined the electric cables as spider webs sucking the life of the people as meals. My apology to all spiders for using them as analogy for the one percent blood suckers of this planet.

My paintings are my voice. Each brush stroke is a silent word. Each color, tint and shade stems from a complex spectrum of feelings, ideas, sensations and stories that I hope will have resonance in the imagination and soul of the viewer.I choose to express questions, motifs and beliefs through figurative painting, because I believe it to be the most concrete, clear and impressionable form of artistic expression. Most of the subjects I portray are decisively naked, and this is because I believe that the nude figure, without the protection of clothing, is the greatest way to reveal the deepest truths of what resides within the human soul.The majority of my work explores a range that consists of traditional religious dogma and prejudice at one end, and the instinctive and emotive nature of human sexuality on the other. Though these two subjects are traditionally contrasted as being poles apart, I aim to demystify the prejudices and preconceptions which divide them, and instead, seek to bridge them through a contemporary interpretation that is rational, thoughtful and honest, as well as spiritual and sacred; This interpretation is never intended to be controversial or offensive, but rather, conciliatory and revealing.
