Descripción del Artista
Paco Dalmau
Evolution series
Paco Dalmau’s pictorial practice explores the interplay of colour and depth perception as a method of producing abstract expressive work. The selection of a chromatic range is the starting point towards this dialogue, where the erosion of the material, the glazes and the blurring of the color, manages to incorporate into each painting a distance between layers and values, which provides a feeling of depth, mysticism and spirituality.
Introspection, motivation, self-awareness and the way of perceiving his relationship with the world are important subjects for Paco Dalmau. With these ingredients, Dalmau makes the exercise to internalize his sensations and emotions in order to carry out this experimentation on the canvases. His painting process is informed by the study of the psychology of color, each piece aims to propose/leads to a different state of mind of the viewer, through its color range and its visual texture. Paco Dalmau produces his paintings in series, each piece in the series seeks a personal and intimate interaction with each viewer, providing the beginning of a dialogue between the artist, the painting and the public.
Dalmau was born and raised in Spain, where the passion and temperament of his culture is evident in his pictorial works. Since 2012 he lives and works in Rotterdam (NL), where the conceptual and methodological influences of the Dutch artistic culture have permeated his artistic practice. This cultural miscegenation defines the current work of the Valencian artist, where passion, method and concept converge in his creative proposal.
