Biography of the painter Mery Sales

Veiling, my painting reveals. In its course it has found a different manner of reasoning stemming from decisive references and elusive concepts of a tangible presence. Each of the temporal sequences, of high narrative and symbolic content, has strengthened its commitment with a certain type of writing where the succession of images has found a red thread in time. A kind of embodied thought with the intention to awaken conscience favouring sensorial and emotional meetings in the world to which we belong with its beauty and its conflict. A double grid which, throughout the years, has distinguished itself as an immense and reversible net of what is sensitive.
Iconic, plastic and conceptual features are the change of scale, out of focus and out of range and the different compositive tensions, overlapping of outlines and shapes, the free use of light, colour or stain; simultaneous double vision, figurative and abstract; stylistic diversity in the content of each project; multiple readings and textual references, reinterpretation of classic genres such as landscape and portrait. Concerning genres but in another sense, also a new reading of my own painting devoid of the masculine tradition perspective. My painting continues to evolve, from time to time, as a constant movement of closeness and distance with itself and, beyond its margins, in intimate relationship with other gazes.
