RÈTINA

acrylic on canvas, 2018

Rètina is a series of paintings that have as their subject the relationship of the public with ancient musealized works. Rètina intends to deepen the concept of posthumous image, that is what we see closing the eyes after having long fixed a subject.
The intent is to return the first impression, the imprint left by the light on the retina, reproducing it on canvas as if it were the impression of the ink on the paper in the printing process.
The act of imprint modifies the surface touched.
