The corpus of works entitled "Triptychs and Drawings of Surface" is a series of drawings, sculptures and linocuts, which propose a glance on surfaces that we do not see any more, because we have grown used to their familiar presence. We recognize graphic marks, which attract our attention by their beauty but also their ambiguity. The "Triptychs" draw hybrid links between sculptural objects and drawn surfaces. This need to recognize and identify the origin is inherent to the human mind, previous to any experience, and draws straight from its atavistic memory. By occupying the space, the work proposes a relationship between the energy of the body and the internal dynamism of its memory. It creates a passage between real-concrete space, and internal space.
