ARTIST STATEMENT
I am a conceptual artist aiming to unify the creative philosophies of Lucio Fontana, Agostino Bonalumi, and Zilia Sánchez by merging painting (2-D) and sculpture (3-D) using the two dimensional surface of the canvas as the most logical building block in achieving such a goal. The theoretical 2.5 dimension—the bridge between two and three dimensions—can be achieved (intellectually and visually) through layers, optical illusion, real objects, and relevant, topmost color contrast. Generally, my art which celebrates science, creativity, and excellence also deals with temporary issues that should help enrich and deepen our thoughts in understanding our reality [“Cogito, ergo sum,” Rene Descartes’s first principle], it relates to how being alive now on earth will lead us together to viable solutions to attend all contemporary pressing and critical issues.
