In the "Plaza de Toros" series I became the "toreador" fighting with the bull. I painted in 1 Breath Time with all the tools which had been in advance prepared: brushes permeated in colors, pallet knives with chunks of paint, and rollers.
I painted with the tools as if they were swords, releasing into the air one tool in the way to the next one. The viewer can, when looking at the picture, in front of the "real", physical artwork, feel the vibrating power transmitted through the emphasized abstract movement of the life and death struggle with the bull, leaving me panting with exhaustion. |
