Small mistakes, big beginnings
From First Expressions to Minimal Expressions / Maximal Statements: a journey from gesture to synthesis, between November and December.
The beginning of a language still reinventing itself.
“Art lives off accidents too — sometimes the calendar takes the lead.”
The Restaurante Galeria recently shared the poster for my exhibition First Expressions.
Everything’s right — well, almost. Just one tiny detail: the month.
The show actually changes in December, not November.
But even that small mistake made sense — because what’s coming next is, in truth, a natural continuation.
First Expressions gathers my first explorations in Abstract Expressionism — raw color, instinctive gestures, energy still finding its rhythm.
Now, in December, comes Minimal Expressions / Maximal Statements, where those impulses evolve — more contained, more deliberate, but still alive.
Between one and the other lies a journey: from explosion to synthesis, from gesture to structure, from urgency to silence.
Same language — just spoken differently.
👉 Café conclusion: sometimes even the calendar’s mistakes help tell the right story.
Between silence and pigment
A brief return: the studio spoke louder, and silence turned into creation.
After the noise, the studio’s silence remains.
“There are times when silence is the only way to work.” — HMad
It’s been a while since I last wrote here. My bad.
But sometimes the studio speaks louder — and the blog just has to wait for its turn.
The work for the exhibitions ended up multiplying: one in November, another in December.
Two fronts, two tempos, and the same pair of hands trying to keep up.
Between canvases, color, and cold coffee, time simply vanished.
But that’s a good sign — it means the materials took over, and silence turned into creation.
👉 Café conclusion: I wasn’t gone — I was just busy shaping the right kind of noise.
