Sombras de luz

Carlos Suárez has sown the forest with large sheets of paraffin which, like canvases, catch the shadows, delimit the space and guide the eye. The instability of the material adds a note of transience and indeterminacy.

Carlos Suárez sips from the aesthetics of purity and the ephemeral, but he never kept a hive nor was moved by the sweetness of honey. His sober work, far removed from any herd instinct, ultimately communes with disappearance. His gaze is clothed in longing, and when it is stripped bare it becomes visions that tell how the human confronts territories of solitude.
