by Eva Santin

I try to address the concepts of intimacy and invisible in space, such as speech while reading the work itself, in terms of spatial interaction with the viewer. Only the sensitive eye, in the proximity (distance intima), perceive subtle nuances: invisibility.

These works, therefore, contain the essence, emptiness and infinity through a contemplative process, where time stands still (for the creator and the observer). Treatment works are very sober, which imposes the most subtle, such as light or transparency, dominated by the language of the whisper. Art codes are reduced to a minimum with no distractions pieces that play with what is not.
