Processes and their Relation with the Meaning of Images.
"I work by forming a shape around my environment and trying to make a relationship between these shapes in order to create a new image.
I have approached these questions by focusing on the theme of duration: recording some moments of the passage of time. In some previous works I have used the time it takes to dry the resin to dry up as a formative element, in the configuration of serialized rows of circular plastic covers. Since the resin ends up assuming random forms, the duration of its hardening, becomes an element that disrupts the work's pre-established serial system.
The shape I find is important to me because it has been used for other unknown situations and has left a form which I can adapt to make a new shape. I some of my recent works I put pins into a piece of foam. I put the first pin in and continued nailing following the shadow of the circular heads of the pins.
I make relationships between materials and concepts, as well as associations with ideas and shapes the way should be made, and I can do quickly. So even though I have a rational side that knows exactly what I am looking for, I tried to allow chance and experimentation to yield the unexpected."
