My work revolves around the idea of human nature on its borders with the animal, the vegetable or the inert. Through sculpture with a special interest in matter and organic, I investigate the transformation processes that give rise to new dimensions in subjects, questioning their essence and individuality. I am interested in elements such as fossilization, mummification, the petrified figures of Pompeii or the nuclear footprints of Hiroshima and Nagasaki for being processes in which the living element acquires a new permanent nature.
By means of the symbolic I alter the usual visual order to approach the mystery of the living, its disappearance and the search for meaning it awakens, motivated by fear of insignificance and forgetfulness. Likewise, in my last pieces I address a personal feeling of duplicity projected abroad, focusing interest on the limits of identity and on problems specific to sculpture such as form and space.
Without pretending to have a precise meaning, when representing this idea of repetition on the physical plane, disturbing aspects arise that refer to elements of the collective imaginary that can challenge the viewer.
