“I remember as a child the cloths covering the furniture of the house or the sheets and blankets, the bodies in the beds, in sleep or in pain and even the rubbing with a pencil on the paper that covered the embossing of a coin….

These memories led me, some 35 years ago, to start working on the idea of the embossed trace, evoked by the covering of a composition of disparate objects and volumes, usually tools, building elements or architectural fragments…

Working with the cover material (usually paper and sometimes fabric) in the form of an Action, as it takes the shape of the relief of the hidden composition, the random suddenly appears through the undisciplined crumpling of the covering, giving a special charm to the result, when in the final phase, the spray of paint gives life to the trace imprinted on the painted surface-cover. Subsequently, with the stretching , the “tessellation” of the surface, the real anaglyphic trace is transformed into a pseudo-relief, constituting an interesting optical illusion with a philosophical dimension on the relationship between the real and the false.
