The abstract art is to make from one image many different ones; my (spatial) painting and my (letter work) sculpture is associated to this contemporary art. By combining geometric figures, I create new associations and expressive forms.

Stages of his work:
Since 1973, I work in publishing, combing this activity with painting, sculpturing, drawing, and engraving.
Stylistic periods: informal abstraction stage (1973-84), expressionist-figurative-geometric stage (1979-84), geometric abstraction stage with optical and modular elements (1982). Since 1988, I incorporate minimalist art features; and as of 1992, some characters, resulting from the recombination of the iconographic and technical knowledge, appear in part of my work.

Prisoner of art
The purpose of my work is only that of self-satisfaction. The only standard I follow is just not to have any. Having my own material and technical resources, I start from an original idea, which I struggle not to abandon or transform its essence. The construction process is highly calculated and exhausting; this working pace captivates me in the dialog work-artist, for confidences and revelations, which are common in painters, are caught between me and the work. For this reason the artist has devoted part of his physical and emotional live.
When completing a work and gazing at it, I feel incomparably intoxicated with pleasure, this state of mind can hardly be described with words. From that moment on, or perhaps before, the work suggests me or reveals one (or more) new ideas to perform.
In this way, it is repeated a cycle in which I am not more than a prisoner of art
Havana , November 10, 2004 
With the New Century I prepared new ways for my artistic expression, stimulating passion for volume. This time I brought into three-dimensional what we are used to watching in a plane or printed way, I turned typography into corporeal. I kept showing an optical effect on the surface, now in a different way (new in my works) for in the same surface I establish a dichotomy of images in modular fragments where one overlaps the other and vice versa, considering the resulting visual effect brought by the absence and restoration of my discursive axis.
