Studying architecture taught me how to paint in a different way. Instead of seating in front of an easel with me and my mind, I wander around my studio collecting information and clues about something a could build. Like a construction, I try to find a structure that binds all those fragments together.
It starts usually with a piece of paper, often an already existing, unfinished draw or collage stumbled upon. Parts of one work are cut and added on another. Therefore, there is no original format or orientation to dictate any conditions. If something is incomplete, I glue in additional surfaces. So the painting grows as more and more elements are added. It is hard to know how big the next piece is going to become.
Then, I found that horizontal compositions make the eyes to better wander across the surfaces and to notice the chain of different materials.
