He worked there as assistant of many international artist such as Hermann Nitsch, Erwin Wurm and Daniel Spoerri. Those prolific experiences has produced a gradually and reciprocally contamination of the painting with the sculpture like it evidently appears in the recent sculptures series Formaunica. The series start with the alteration of the classic casting mould technique, the negative forms are created from by-products of daily consumption of the artist itself that leaves and indirect imprint in the formation of the sculptures creating an aesthetical metabolization of everyday life. The imprint and negative theme which appears in the sculptures it is also evident in the paintings where overlappings, maskings and erasures often leaves just a trace of the passing by painting. That means that the technique disown the gesture to counterfeit the sign. This complex technique deceive the viewer´s eye simulating sometimes digital graphic effects and puts itself in a close dialogue with the sculpture provoking an aesthetical and conceptual cohesion with both media.
