Title: Mackandal’s Progressive Metamorphosis Technique: Assembly and paint wear on aluminum Dimensions: 48 "x 96" (122 cm x 244 cm) Year: 2012 - signed to the front - Without frame This is a work composed of four metal butterflies assembled on the holder, printed map of the island of Haiti and Dominica, magenta-colored oil, industrial painting and traces of wear on grinding tools aluminium metal. "Progressive metamorphosis of Mackandal" is the synthesis of the 'wonderful reality' theme of the Cuban writer Alejo Carpentier in his novel the Kingdom of this world. A magical world of need to live within the wonders of magic realism in America, or as the author describes it: "The real wonderful is that, that unexpected alteration of reality, a privileged revelation, an unusual lighting, a creative faith of what we need to live in freedom; a search, a task of other dimensions of reality, dream and execution, occurrence and presence." This work describes the moment in which the legendary character of Carpentier, fruitful, is transformed into Butterfly at the very moment of its execution when it was drowned by the flames; inspiring element that marks the content of all revolutionary action throughout all the stories of independence in Latin America, and whose character is its permanent alterity fleeting, isolated and sensitive. Original ready to hang. Frame is not required.
I consider myself a person whose work is different. Realism fields interest me to abstraction. In a without number of applications with the drawing, the painting, the sculpture or the Assembly, have got guide my work facing them themes that I challenge as the behavior of them humans in its modernity, their concerns, their virtues and shortcomings. I like capture them energies of them works left by teachers as Cezanne, Degas, Picasso, or as Twombly, or in life as Gerhard Richter, Anish Kapoor or Anselm Kiefer, as are for me sources of power for continue growing in the work of art. This me has taught that the art not has limits and much less restrictions, since the imagination of the man is that it pushes to continue being within their own ruptures and metamorphosis.
