Windows
Four acrylic paintings of 140 x 120 cm (356 x 305 in) and two of 140 x 100 cm (356 x 254 in), with backgrounds light blue, light green, and Naples Yellow. It is about a layer (the window) that separates two different worlds (the outside and the inside).
I reconcile with their laughter and the heaviness of their steps left behind the topcoat shadow. The hats give me joy, like eclipses with smaller or bigger rays-only accents of the scenery that I admire from here, my place. Until now I was green-cold! Please pay attention to my eyes. Do you have the courage to see what I see? You can escape, throw out, or ignore anything you have on hand at this moment so that you can rest for a single moment together with me in this showcase.
Do you have the strength to fully immerse in this experience with yourselves and let your thoughts flow, let your dreams go the way they want on the knees? My retina is full of reds and warmth even though my skin is still shivering… If you would like to feel, I would send you all the feelings that travel through my body and the tears that stretch trying to find my eyes and not on the cheek-tears like an undecided magnifying glass that brings closer and then sends away blacks and reds and greens and coats and topcoats.
In this hotel room here with me lay on the bed my body and desire, the longing and the quietness, the wishful thinking and the fear.
I am making these comments behind a small glass piece: the threshold that makes me feel like I am in a showcase placed so high to be observed by the passers-by from the street. And I melt to be able to profoundly include the state of everyone who is walking by, in a hurry or not, to take care of their affairs.
