PAISAJES: Drawings and Paintings Paperback – November 24, 2025

This book “Paisajes” brings together years of exploration and search. It is both a logbook and a testimony: evidence that the act of looking can also be an act of transformation. Those who turn these pages will not find mere images, but gateways to different ways of inhabiting the world. Each painting, each drawing, each mark invites the viewer to pause, to breathe, to look again— to discover that within the everyday, something extraordinary always remains.The works gathered here do not aim to reproduce reality as it is, but to reveal what hides in its interstices: a rhythm, a vibration, a truth that appears only when experience and sensitivity intertwine. In this way, each piece acquires a unique dimension; each work is, in a sense, a fragment of time captured in a state of fluidity. These are not static images, but moments that continue to move as they are observed.Within this collection coexist landscapes, intimate scenes, and abstract explorations, all united by a single spirit: the desire to understand the mystery of the world through color and form. In the paintings of rivers, marshes, or open fields—such as the work that opens this book—water, earth, and atmosphere emerge not as isolated elements, but as living forces in constant dialogue.At the heart of this work lies an ongoing conversation with the tradition of painting, though never confined by it. It is not only about stepping into the landscape to capture a luminous instant; there is also a palpable material energy, a willingness to let pigment speak, to let texture breathe, to allow the gesture to retain its own history on the surface.This practice gives many of the works a particular immediacy: they feel lived, breathed. Within them there is wind, humidity, shifting light. There is a here-and-now that belongs not to the studio, but to the open world.Yet alongside this direct record of the environment, a philosophical impulse also emerges: a question about what it means to see, to remember, to be in relation with what surrounds us. The works are, in this sense, visual meditations. Each proposes a different mode of presence—sometimes contemplative, other times vibrant, melancholic, or intensely vital. And in this movement, art becomes not only a vehicle of expression, but a way of knowing.For ultimately, this book is an invitation: to understand that beauty— that fragile and enduring form of truth— does not reside in things themselves, but in the way we learn to see them.
