VIBRATION

MONAT Gallery - Madrid

The exhibition VIBRATION – 3rd edition, organized by Monat Gallery, goes far beyond the visual impact of the works. It creates a true sensory atmosphere, where visual and sound stimuli intertwine, inviting us to dive into the essence of each creation.

In this edition, I had the privilege of presenting one of my most spontaneous works. Created in 2014, in Coimbra, it was born at a defining moment in my life. Everything I considered certain suddenly collapsed, dragging me into a whirlwind of feelings that were difficult to put into words. Out of that inner confusion, the work emerged — the inspiration was sudden, almost unexpected.

On the canvas, the most recognizable element is a face, surrounded by a visual chaos that mirrors exactly what I was feeling. The rest is random, confused, instinctive. It was also the first time I experimented with silicone, creating an irregular, raw texture, later covered with fluorescent acrylic paint. The intense, almost screaming colors reflect how my inner peace felt torn apart by something completely out of place.

Thus came the title: Confusion. A faithful translation of the state of mind I was living in at the time.

The exhibition took place in the heart of Madrid, at Monat Gallery (Calle de los Estudios 7), between June 16 and July 16, 2025. It was an honor to share this work in a space that values authenticity and the strength of artistic expression.

I leave my most sincere gratitude to the entire Monat Gallery team — not only for believing in my work and for their great professionalism, but also for being, above all, extraordinary human beings.
