These are not paintings, they are digital images from photographs.
I feel obliged to explain these images verbally:
The original photograph is lifted, raised to another level, to another interpretation, and placed on this new reality. A critic called this final estate: Magic Realism, a term which is commonly applied to literature, specifically Latin American fiction.
And thus attempting to bridge the gap between traditional photography and traditional painting (the repetition of 'traditional' is intended)
THE SELF
The Self beheaded
The Self falling
The Self adrift
Two nails... The Self and Time
The Self closeup
Where is the light that was promised me?
Filippo Argenti
The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
The Self abroad
After Ricardo López Alcalá
The Self dreaming
THE OTHER
The Tarot Reader
An unknown Dancer or the tarnished mirror
She...
At the edge of a dream...
The Pilgrim/Prophet
