Statement
These works have a pictorial fragmentation with colors forming horizontal and vertical rhythms and overlaying of layers, irregular with its dimensions, creating a spatial game. The colors blend together and imply new colors with resources of transparency and make the eye penetrate inner structures. They are passages from the inside out and vice versa modifying the painting's classical function.
