Artist statement
Formas, 2019 by Alejandra Quintanilla
Oil on paper
Paper size: 22 in H x 30 in W
A drawing is a brand, which becomes a picture and leaves remains that become the beginning again. This creates a reflection on the time and the importance of the process in painting. This series is born from a search to leave aside the narrative figurative and reduce the image to shape and color. It starts with both images found as well as her own images, previous pieces, from her palette, from drawings, in a self-referential way.
