Abstract

The artist investigates the abysses, the limits of his existence, and, from there, he tries to bring to the plane of the sayable his desires, his desires, that which distresses him, that horrifies him. Between those limits that he perceives and inquires, he discovers the possibility of dying as irrebatable; which, in his daily life, is hidden from him.Production and aesthetic experience —liberating time for something in which we regularly live together— give the existing human the viability of revealing his own possibility of dying, his existence as a temporality; and then, revaluing each moment as unique and unrepeatable in responsibility of having to choose, invariably, in your being until death.
