Momento

Momento/Moment.

I wanted to convey the meaning of this piece with symbols I have using on my previous works. From the top to the bottom: two narwhals, on one side, a priest reading the gospel, on the other, a seamstress with a spinning wheel, on the bottom pigeons nesting with their small offspring.

Intente transmitir el significado de esta obra utilizando dimbología utilizzada en mis pinturas/dibujos anteriores. Desde arriba: dos narvales, en un lado, un sacerdote leyendo el Evangelio, en el otro lado una modista hilando en una rueca, en el borde inferior, gorriones en sus nidos con sus pichones.

The Baptist

John The Baptist is probably one of the most mystical figures of the Bible. He is said to be the precursor or forerunner of Jesus and some branches of the christianism regard him as the reincarnation of the Old Testament`s Prophet, Elijah. It has been written that he was one of the purest and honest of men, and lived preaching and making the baptism ceremony in the Jordan River. .

This is an old painting I made during june-july in a more spiritual phase of my life, where I depicted the saint in a sort of religious extasis in the Jordan, travelling through the cosmos. In the left top corner you can see him preaching to a small crowd at the same time.There are also lilies the bottom right corner- a symbol of purity. The latin which is not very clear in the photo says "Vox Clamantis in Deserto".Tools: Oils in MDF 34 x 49cm

A very kind man lend me this beautiful frame for an exbition at my art school
and an art gallery of a public hospital. The photo is quite poor, but
the frame fit the artwork very nice and helped convey the sacred quality I wanted to show.

The Death of Virgin Mary

"Well I believe there's something watching over you

They're watching every single thing you say

And when you die they'll set you down and take you through

You'll realize one day(...)

We all live under the same sky

We all will live we all will die

There is no wrong

There is no right

The circle only has one side

We all try hard to live our lives in harmony

For fear of falling swiftly overboard

But life is both a major and minor key

Just open up the chord"

Inspired by a beautiful quote I read in September 2010, about Eve`s punishement and her curse to childbirth forever.
