Mar Cantón, "Disquiet", freehand watercolor and ink painting. No pencil sketch. Raw process. Video of the process.
“I am alone in the world. To see is to be distant. To see clearly is to stop. To analyze is to be a stranger. Everyone passes by without brushing against me. I have only air around me. I feel so isolated that I can feel the distance between myself and my presence.”
(I am a fixed, obsessive gaze, an open eye over the abyss of the world).
“My soul is weary of feeling. I wear my eyes tired from having seen.”
(Quotes: Fernando Pessoa, "The Book of Disquiet".
Central phrase: Mar Cantón).
