Photographic Painting


In my artistic research I develop a painting, a process has two steps: "Photographic Painting" and "Painting". I denominate "Photographic Painting" the process of formation of the various moments of the future painting. When this process ends, I get the "painting" itself. The painting is generated in the aqueous environment, and the result is the product of the ephemerality of a process of metamorphosis. This process is done in a glass tank with liquid resulting from the fusion of painting materials such as: acrylic, watercolors, ecolines,gouaches, and materials not involved in the painting for example: culinary sauces, detergents and beverages. To register the action that develops in the aqueous environment spontaneously and naturally, I resort to photography. It this fixes the instants of the chemical process that occurs, and generate the elements’ metamorphosis. To this process I want to call it, in the connection of my work, "Painting Photography". It derives from two actions –the fusion of the pigments with the aqueous environment (which is a natural process of cause - effect) and a photographic process (which is artificial and mechanical action) which records the sequence of instants that are ephemeral in the future gene painting. These two actions are part of my pictorial art process. The pigments’fusion will settle to the bottom of the tank. And this will give rise to the settle process that will originate somewhat haphazardly my painting. It arises as follows: before entering any pigment in the container, I put in it background a canvas for the pigments settle. The generated colors on the surface of canvas will be my painting.
