It is essential for me to ask myself questions about the subjective and empirical knowledge of the dual in human experience and explore the confrontation between the intimate and the foreign. I believe that there is a significant poetic charge in working visually with that permanent tension that we experience around duality. And in the search for an embodiment of these ideas, I establish links between the ugly and the crude through the aesthetic treatment of these as if they were precious elements endowed with a special quality. For this, I simultaneously use the idea of the hostile, the overwhelming, and the mysterious through amorphous figures that are placed in partially identifiable contexts, which endow them with a distorted humanity, as if they were trying to become something real, but inevitably falling into an ambiguity that makes it difficult for the observer to establish closed meanings, thus forcing them to open up to ideas that are hidden under the veil of rationality.
