  • Reconstructive is a photographic series that has as starting point an exercise of consciousness. Although
    many would assume it as a sample of abstract photography, I might not necessarily agree with that.
    Obviously, I capture a set of planes, volumes, tones, but
    there is still an obvious connection with certain elements of reality.
    I try to stay away from immersing myself in a full abstract panorama, because
    I take advantage of the subtleties of reality that emerge in these photos to
    establish a re-constructive exercise in the public that approaches and
    interpret my own constructions.
    It is a project that also draws on the experiences of the Russian avant-garde, especially the assumptions defended by Rayonism, Suprematism and Constructivism. From this last movement, Alexandr
    Rodchenko constitutes my aesthetic precedent by preference. For instance, I take as a common factor the inclination towards maximum synthesis of the works.
    Specifically, constructivism nurtures the fascination
    by machine, by technique, by interaction with architecture,
    a question that marked the selection of objects and elements that I have
    photographed for this series. From the national context, I assume as a
    essential antecedent the photographic work of José Manuel Acosta,
    especially for being the one who paid the most attention to avant-garde transgressions on the grounds of the demonstration, and the one who best
    assumed in the Island.
