Diego Rey Artworks for Sale

Concept

Diego Rey's work is marked by the investigation of space and the way in which we imagine, create, travel, question and represent them, he asks what is there when there is no space, what happens when we stop imagining it, how do we reoccupy it Art is the way to fill that void, how it does it. The series of works exhibited are works made in acrylic on canvas, which are based on drawings of corners, floors, ceilings and details of architectural spaces that are later deconstructed through the transformation of the elements, the use of color or the contrast of treatments. The images created by Rey pose places that can be interior or exterior, placing the viewer a question under an improbable setting, thus playing with the sense of relativity about the place in which the observer is located. In some works, the transformation of the initial drawing reaches points where it is difficult to recognize the corner of a site or the floor of a certain space, placing the image at a point of almost absolute loss of the referent, becoming a space of abstraction and concept . The result seeks to generate new indefinite places in which the line is a floating element, perceived many times from its presence and others from its absence, highlighting the relative nature of the factors with which the space is defined. In line with the aforementioned, the gestures of the planes and the use of superimposed layers of color give the impression of being a background and on other occasions a form, feeding the ambiguity of the proposed spaces.
