Between walls, windows and cubic volumes, atmospheres oscillate between surrealism, futurism and abstractionism. Spaces unfold exposing both the micro and macro, doors open revealing everyday situations which materialise into choreographic paintings. Between rooms, cities and a labyrinth of corridors, banal situations take form expressing the inner universe of these characters and their relationship with the world that surrounds them.
