This work will arrive unstretched and rolled in a secure tube. The canvas measures 194 cm x 140 cm (76,3x55,1 inches) un stretched. The image above represents the work stretched on strecher bars that measure aprox. 184 cm x 130 cm x 3 cm. This work is painted on the back of another previous work that I had forgotten in my studio and that I never finished. The painting you see is the result of an initial idea that has undergone a constant transformation, a process very common in all my works. It started out as a black canvas with a geometrically shaped piece of paper, which I had found in my girl's study, and whose shape I had liked. In addition, the painting had some traces of gold spray, remains that can still be seen now if you look closely. After studying it for several days, the work did not convince me. I liked brown paper, but not used that way. So I started to erase it with the black color, and when doing it almost by accident I was applying the black paint only in some parts; I liked this. I dedicated myself to repeating the technique in the rest of the painting, a technique that also allowed me to play with the wrinkles of the paper, which is very fine, thus creating a very interesting texture on the surface of the painting. The result convinced me more and more, so now it only remained to establish a relationship of harmony between the different forms. Establish a dialogue between them to create a visually appealing composition. For me it is only that. After making several decisions, some of them wrong, the result is the image you can see.

All my work and my creative process is based on three key elements or ideas: the exploration of the subconscious, improvisation, and serendipity. My painting originates in the subconscious. I start from the absence of any idea to come to the idea. The result is something unexpected for myself that through painting comes to light. It is a game in which I find myself and I am myself shocked at the same time. Improvisation is also an important component in my work. I am a musician, and jazz music in particular is essential in my life and in my work. In a way the character of this music is reflected in my work. There is improvisation in the choice of fabrics and in the execution itself, using whatever happens to be in my studio: available colors, pieces of paper that I find on the ground, rolls of tape or pieces of wood, cardboard or paper. All these elements harmoniously compounded give rise to the composition of the canvas. The universe is in the end the result of coincidence and similar to nature, serendepity is fundamental in my creative process. Searching making discoveries by accidents and sagacity, manipulating chance to control the outcome, in the absence of any specific project, but continuously transforming the work in search of beauty. And beauty may be in something old, broken, dirty, in the chipped and cracked walls of a facade, the ruins of a building or in the cracked roles of billboards. But also in a simple line, in an apparently sloppy figure, on a piece of adhesive tape, a rayon, a doodle or in an illegible text. My work in the studio is very physical. I always paint on the canvas with no frame, sometimes extendng it directly on the floor. The fabric tends to fold, gets wrinkled and paints itself. The fabric makes the work, and gives rise to works depicting the tension and confrontation that occurs when they hit the subconscious, improvisation and serendepity. They embody the combination of these three forces, but always controlled and manipulated by the skill and intuition of the painter (sagacity), who becomes the catalyst or active agent of a creative process understood as a game whose outcome becomes interesting for the painter, as so unexpected.
