Curriculum Vitae AGUILA
Concept
The concept, from which ÁGUILA starts to create his art works cannot be described within the relative framework, because it gets beyond the classically handled notions.
Allthough his artworks often have a figurativity which is recognizibly experienced by means of the symbolical bi-dimensionality, form, matter and colour spectrum are nevertheless passing here to the nature of the atom, with its twofold character.
The creations are realized with particles which have a probability pattern that fluctuates in continuous rhythmic movements as semi light waves in the emptyness in space. It concerns the physical reality between existence and non existence. Its identity is experienced as an organic whole in which the apparent opposites and the uncompatible notions appear to be nothing more than the different aspects of one and the same reality.
When one has experienced the reality in these creations, it is not easy to interprete these identities and express them in words.
