Most of my works have a relation to nature or dealing with the relation between nature and human. Although human is part of nature, we are different from any other species since we use more tools than them, so that we can have better control of things around us. And I would like to say that's the contrast between body and mind, organic and artificial, and controlled and uncontrolled. I put most of my vigor on making sculptures and installations, which addresses issues related to the strict regulations and the softness of nature in contemporary society. Read more

This underlines the cyclical nature without a beginning or an end. Feelings are part of us forging our character. Read more

"Art represents for me a 'ligne de vie'. I have been painting since my 15 years: since then, artistic practice has accompanied all my experiences as a girl, woman, mother. My only safety net in the most difficult situations, today represents the way to seek beauty in the objects and materials we use every day. I often work starting from a material that already carries a story in it, because it has been found, extracted and reused. It may perhaps be recognized by the people who had it in their hands. Somehow, it tells a collective story, piecing together, to establish bonds, but at the same time fixing my experiences." Read more

A Brussels-based Spanish artist, Manuel Delgado is a visual poet. He aims to develop expansive and innovative modes of writing about, with and as art. Within the visual arts discipline, Manuel is focused on 'Art Writing.' In that sense, Manuel focuses on multidisciplinary political poetic practices. He seeks to compose critical art forms from his non-orthodox artistic education, taking advantage of his theoretical basis in Law, Political Science and Philosophy. That is why Manuel is an outsider artist. His works set philosophical essays in modern aesthetics. Researching constitutes an ineludible part of his artistic production, being it a myriad of critical reflections which later on becomes the aura of any 'Art Writing' output. By fostering joint practices that combine poetry with illustration or photography or music, Manuel aspires to deliver a future memory of today’s images. In that regard, he promotes collaborative projects for depicting an utterly panorama of political processes, which are in the end based on many individuals’ perspectives. Read more

My art is based on scientific information, mathematical laws, cosmic energies and history. I use the simplest elements to represent my ideas, so the most basic forms and above all color are essential in my works. A previous study of the line and gesture is paramount as ways to find that harmony that represents order in the universe and color as an instrument to convey sensations to those who contemplate my paintings. There is always a search for the essential in my work, of the spirit of the things, of what is beyond the surface, of the visible. I try to bring the viewer to a silent contemplation that conveys to him an almost mystical sense of seeing the world. It is therefore an abstract painting in which the spontaneous, safe and free expression of the artist’s gesture when painting is of fundamental importance. But without ever neglecting a previous detailed study of the pictorial exercise and the final composition. Read more
