I had never been concerned with understanding how the creative process worked. I thought it was enough to be an «artist» in moments of pure creation. However, it is at the end of an artistic work that it is necessary to go through a period of acceptance and understanding that a new spirit has been born. It is at this stage of professional training that I require a much more demanding intellectual exercise that makes me aware of my motivations. When I place a sign, an x, a cross, or a spiral, I experience a particular satisfaction. I see, and above all, I hear, that with this sign the painting acquires a certain visual and acoustic force. However, when I am inside a salsa orchestra, these structural changes within a musical composition unleash a rapid awareness where a part of my painted brain begins to generate alternative realities full of color and shapes that transcend my understanding, generating psychedelic visual explosions. When I improvise on a salsa descarga and accompany the hard-hitting trombone lines within what we understand as a «Solo» in music, the jubilation becomes an image that I would then seek to transport to the canvas. It is this experience that leads me to deep introspection and I begin to investigate within the arts, starting from a historical beginning from the appearance of these types of expression and looking for a bridge between my life, the social and anthropological existence of these two means of expression).
