Oil on canvas - 80 X 80cm - 2003

William has asked me to write some words about my paintings. In fact, I think that talking about my work is a language that I don’t master, perhaps because I paint as spontaneously as I do every other daily activity. My paintings are a mirror which reflects these daily activities with all the contradictions they might include. The Key to my paintings is an alphabet consisting of those elements that I choose from what surrounds me either in the street or in my workroom. I think that these elements have to co-exist with each other in the painting as much as they exist harmoniously in my practical life. In brief, the paintings shown in this exhibition are nothing more than painted diaries.
