Mindscapes

 

This series started in Los Angeles in 2019, an offshoot of Brainology 2015, without outlines, very colorful and abstract, which are reborn here in a very refined version, centered on dreams. These artworks are based on fever dreams the artist had as a child. He saw himself in colorful and undulating landscapes, which he recreates in a minimalist and expressive form. Over time, memories of places that have marked him are added from the deserts of Arizona to coast of California positioned amongst feminine curves that merge into landscapes.

This quote from Agnès Varda gives full meaning to this approach: “If we opened people, we would find landscapes.”
