MY CREATIVE PROCESS

My work arises from the encounter between matter, emotion, and human contradiction. I don't simply seek to represent a figure, but rather to capture an idea, a tension, or a question that remains open. Each sculpture is a conversation between who we are and who we appear to be, between our most instinctive nature and our need to leave a mark on the world.

I work with universal icons (animals, human figures, and recognizable shapes and objects) because they are part of our collective imagination. They are symbols we all understand even before we think about them. My intention is to appropriate these symbols and transform them into narrators of contemporary stories, imbuing them with color, gestures, words, and visual scars that reflect the complexity of our time.

Color plays a fundamental role in my artistic language. Splashes, drips, and superimposed layers are not merely aesthetic devices; they represent the energy of life, creative chaos, the accumulation of experiences, and the mark that the passage of time leaves on us. Each stain is an emotion, each spontaneous stroke an act of freedom. I'm interested in the surface of the artwork retaining that sense of movement, as if it were still transforming before the viewer's eyes.

In my creative process, two seemingly opposing forces coexist: technical rigor and spontaneity. Sculptural construction demands precision, balance, and control. However, once the structure is established, I allow intuitive gesture to take center stage. It is in this dialogue between control and freedom that I find the identity of each piece.

The influence of urban art is also present in my work. I'm drawn to its capacity to communicate directly, to appropriate space, and to transform any surface into a visual manifesto. I incorporate words, symbols, and messages that function as fragments of thought, inviting the viewer to construct their own interpretation. I'm not interested in imposing a single reading; I prefer to open paths and generate questions.

Each work is conceived as an experience. I want the viewer to first feel an immediate visual attraction and then discover deeper layers of meaning. Beauty, irony, social critique, vulnerability, and hope coexist within a single sculptural form, because that is how I also understand the human condition.

My goal is not merely to create sculptures, but to construct presences. Works that occupy a physical and emotional space, that engage in dialogue with architecture, with the environment, and with people. Pieces that remain in the memory not only for their size or visual impact, but for the emotion they evoke and the questions they leave resonating long after they have been seen.

Because, ultimately, to create is to transform matter into emotion and to convert an invisible idea into something capable of connecting with others. That is the true driving force behind my work.
