Art Performance

My belief is that human life should be the priority, and that neither the state nor religion should have the authority to violate it. The common sense that guides most people in the world, who do not want war, who will not kill someone today, should be respected. It should prevail. It should be reality.
This is my only flag!

What if movements could be transformed into something concrete that leaves its mark? In 2021 in Mexico, in Puerto Escondido, this question gave rise to the idea of creating a painting where the main subject is movement. Two years later, the idea was finally realized. Christian’s imminent departure for new adventures was the perfect opportunity to collaborate with Luca de Pravato and bring together all the artists to create this unique and unrepeatable Art Performance
5.15 LOOKDOWN
This artwork/performance is made in 2021 at San Cristobal De las Casas Chiapas Mexico. In 2020 I decide to travel and explore the rural Mexico instead of being locked at home in the capital of Berlin. With this art performance I wants to use my body to do “crazy stuff” in order to balance the suffering and depressing emotion that humanity had experienced with the Covid-19 restrictions.
Pintura Locura
This live painting performance was developed in San Cristóbal de las Casas, Mexico, at the Colectivo Mudra on March 20, 2021.
The performance consisted of three live paintings, each with a different model. I began by painting the first draft while the models posed. As I became more immersed in the creative process, I invited the models to interact with me and the artwork. They became active participants in the art-making process.
Why I started doing art performance?
Berlin, Germany. 2017-2020.
Three years in which space was for me a continuous variable rather than a constant, and this allowed me to shape the complete synergy between myself and the music. My close coexistence with clubbing allowed me to understand a completely new artistic concept. Colors, proportions, dimensions, and weight are real, tangible physical dimensions, as opposed to the fleeting emotions created by a hand dancing on a canvas. The moment the brush crosses the canvas is defined by its intensity, movement, and time, just like a symphony.
These are the reasons why my current and upcoming artistic creations are centered on live performance. The canvas loses its intrinsic role and becomes an empty audio track, where the painting hand is able to record the notes of the song that the artist is living and feeling in that particular moment.
