BAYO BRUT
To make myself habitable My first contact with art as a personal expression medium happened in London in 2015. At that moment my emotional situation was critical due to the great instability in my life and the great pressure I was feeling from both my professional and sentimental context. This situation pulled me into a hole of depression and anxiety that I was only able to manage thanks to Psychological treatments and therapy. Part of that therapy consisted on writing as a way of expressing all those feelings and taking them out from the head to the paper. I soon realized that writing was not the way of expression that best fitted me, and I discovered Painting as a much more accurate way to express everything I had inside my head. In those moments when everything around seemed hostile to me I used to look for refuge in myself. Reaching states of great alienation I used to paint and draw on paper or any other media in an automatic, non conscious way. Rage, Doubt, frustration, sadness... came out from me to the paper on an intuitive way as portraits, more specifically self Portraits. A systematic representation, repetitive, automatic as an in a trance mood. Portraits and more portraits that somehow always represented myself, my inner portraits. The more ink I dropped on the papers the deeper I got into my own reality and the more I disconnected from the hostility of the outer reality. The more rage, doubt, sadness... I captured on the papers, the more I felt released of those feelings myself. Painting was my therapy. Painting is my way of connecting with my inner me. My painting was not ambitious at all, in fact it was for myself only. It wasn’t my objective to change the world, neither my own context. I only wanted to change myself, or at least understand myself. Make myself “habitable�. untitled - 105x75 cm
