I’ve been thinking a lot lately about the nature of my work, it is not something new but rather a recurring theme. It’s difficult in my case as all my work is rooted in non rational procedures, by essence it is impossible to have a direct observation of what goes on in each painting. It is like waking up and trying to remember what the dream was but even here it is much more difficult. I constantly try every time I paint to be absolutely focused on what is going on but just before I begin I enter an unconscious trance, during those seconds the canvas is painted. When I come back into consciousness I lift the brush and the painting is finished. What is the resulting image ? Trough all this years I’ve learned to identify when a painting is just a senseless scribble and when it carries meaning. It is usually decided beforehand, that’s why I only paint when I feel I have something to say, it is not just about making a pretty picture it is about unearthing what lays deep in my soul. This paintings constitute an unconscious language, spoken words from the other side of consciousness.
