Parallel Movement 2026

Drifts of the Gesture

The paintings in Parallel Movement originate from a sketch generated on a touch device. This initial gesture, immediate and continuous, establishes a primary structure that is not directly transferred, but instead activates a construction process on the canvas.

The image is developed through a taping system that defines lines, planes, and directions, allowing for the physical reconstruction of a visual logic belonging to the digital environment. Through layers, overlaps, and displacements, the painting does not reproduce the initial image, but rather reconfigures it.

The work thus occupies an intermediate space where two modes of perception operate: on one hand, the immediacy of the screen-generated image; on the other, the temporality and material resistance of painting. Between the two, a parallel movement is established in which the image is simultaneously constructed as a digital structure and a pictorial experience.

In this process, painting does not represent a direct reality, but a mediated one, filtered by devices and capture systems. The surface of the canvas becomes a site where these logics intersect, generating an image that oscillates between the constructed and the perceived
