  • Holding what remains

    Artwork Description: A gesture settles into stillness. What is held is fragile, partial, already slipping just beyond attention. The figure remains between looking and letting go, where meaning forms without arriving. Bent toward a small wildflower, it withdraws from turbulence into near-erasure. The surface refuses stability, drifting between atmosphere and abrasion, as perception loosens its…

  • The distance between us

    Artwork Description: A barrier defines the encounter, allowing presence while withholding contact. The figures occupy a space where proximity intensifies separation, and the surface between them becomes both conduit and refusal. The moment remains unresolved. Rain, reflection, and fractured light destabilize narrative certainty, transforming the scene into a psychological landscape shaped by vulnerability, isolation, and…

  • Cattle Man, The Ringer

    Additional Artwork Images: Artwork Description: Ringers (cowboys), easily recognisable by their distinctive attire: mole skin trousers and broad-brimmed ranch-style hats, typically white. This style is both practical and iconic, reflecting the demands of their environment and their connection to the rugged red land. Station people, by their very nature, are tough and resilient individuals. They…

Nel rapporto diretto e viscerale con…

  • Gold. Frost

    Artwork Description: This work belongs to the Gold series — paintings built on an ornament of golden spirals. The series turns toward a tradition in which geometry and harmony were not style, but a way of thinking. What appears accidental is not. What appears boundless has a centre — a point. And the point is…

  • Gold. The Muse.

    Artwork Description: This work belongs to the Gold series — paintings built on an ornament of golden spirals. The series explores geometry as a visual language through which humanity has repeatedly sought to understand the structure of the world. The golden spiral is not an invention. It is a structure discovered again and again: in…

  • Still life with ox skull and bananas

    Artwork Description: Esquemática y expresionista representación de Still Life (vanitas), con técnica mixta y acrílicos, en la que dominan los colores fríos en contraste con el cálido amarillo del racimo de plátanos. Frente a la severidad y dramatismo del cráneo animal, que evoca la muerte, los plátanos representan el elemento sensual y vital, aunque efímero….
