Concerning Form and Its Dissolution
Dissolution as a metaphor of the disappearance and transfiguration of matter has occupied a particular place within the group of concerns that have fuelled my work over the past ten years, and this concern is the preamble of my interest in the formless.
Dissolution (1985), The Perception of Shadow (1986), Pre-Conscious States (1986), From the Place of Blood (1986), The Structure of Memory (1986), The Ultimate Significance (1995), Concerning Form and
Its Dissolution (1995) and Concerning Feelings (1995) are some
of the sculptures where we find this obsessive concern for material states that are diluted, such as mortar, or formless
like magma—types of matter that exist at the limits of formal concretion or of an amorphous or disintegrated disappearance.
Structures related to circuits and conducts of meaning, pre-formal states which recall the inconsistency of all the living and permanent aspects of existence, and feelings which explain the visible as something accidental and fleeting that proves
to us their own disappearance with their existence alone.The amorphous and formless as a harbinger of the immaterial and its visibility.
