Baroque Foundations
2006 lays the conceptual and visual groundwork for your mature practice. In these works, a fascination with excess, theatricality, and symbolic tension emerges fully formed. Drawings like A Prueba de Eternidades and Contenedor de Envidias stage elaborate scenes where grandeur collides with inner conflict—early signs of your interest in ornamentation not just as embellishment, but as a mechanism for masking deeper anxieties. These pieces operate as prototypes: rigorous, enigmatic, and charged with the potential energy of themes—empire, identity, spectacle—that will evolve over time into more monumental gestures.
