My artistic practice explores the scopes of one’s gaze through a painterly language and seeks to deepen in psychological, historical and social connotations behind ordinary motifs, objects and images, regardless of how much banality they hold. I believe that banal elements can contain a manifold of powerful connotations, depending on the way they are configured and shown. My visual sources are photographs of everyday objects, scale models, still life compositions and general landscape imagery, with which I create conceptual relations and pictorial quotations that are crafted to convert, or elevate, these elements to the status of aesthetic signs.
