Defragmentation

Concept

I am deeply fascinated by how our modern era has managed to mold us, change us and create behaviors that did not exist before. With the era of social networks and the internet, we have all built an avatar that we show to the world, an alter ego, where we enhance the best of us and hide our weaknesses and fears. We are all perfect. But behind that perfection, messages, shadows and enigmas are hidden.
My work speaks of those masks, the figures I paint may be perfect, or beautiful, but they hide messages. If the viewer is attentive, he or she can discover a second narrative in my paintings. In short, my art represents the frivolity of our society. I also like to play with contradictory concepts, to play with appearances and to leave the viewer with a strange, disconcerting sensation, but one that, deep down, he/she likes.
I work with traditional painting, photography and digital illustration. For me, mixing these disciplines is to unite different worlds to create a new reality. This helps me to strengthen my concept of unreality.
I am a person who is very influenced by pop icons and technology, but at the same time, I look with a certain nostalgia to another era where everything seemed more authentic. I am a contradiction fruit of our society.
