I seek to create natural poetics through wood, they report the years of more rain or drought or the territory where the tree lived. I find its essence inside, in its hidden part, I let it speak to discover a whole world; to show nature.
The intervened trees come back to sprout in the form of sculptures and their splinters, in the manner of fractals, I make emerge on paper the trees that were.
My artistic investigations lead me to experiment with the matter of Nature in all its states, through one of my investigations I have created a series of Monotypes by engraving cork oak bark plates intervened and soaked with Chinese ink made from the remains of the sculptures and their seeds, representing the internal forces of the arboreal matter.
On the other hand in several olive groves of the province of Huesca (Spain) I work on direct carving of sculptures with semi-living trees in situ, resulting in immovable sculptures, the “Catharsis”. Over time these sculptures have sprung back from the base and will be nature, tree and sculpture, that is to say, works of art that will produce olives from which virgin olive oil will be obtained, the liquid soul of the sculpture.
