Chinese dragon (2024)Acrylic painting by Alfonso Sánchez

Painting worked from free improvisation. Action painting with music by Chilly Gonzales.

Playing with the idea of the Prometheus movie. Where humanoids from the future come to prebiotic Earth and disperse their genetic material so that life and human beings are created on our planet.

Choppy shots, fragments of posters that have been torn off. Little stories, pictures, landscapes and music build this story without beginning or end.

Nature, city, antiquity, modernity...beings lost in worlds that are not their own.

Everything passed through the filter of a dream and built on a wall marked by graffiti and the passage of time, in a big city.

Gestural, intuitive painting, which lets things happen and relies on what appears. Taking advantage of the accident and accepting the consequences.

The unknown, what slips through our fingers... Nature, antiquity, the earthly and the spiritual.

Need to tell things, to leave a mark, to understand the world, which is always modern and ancient.

Nothing matters much... Working with a lost gaze...
