Marc Gonz

resistance.

In front of one of his paintings, we don’t look at an image. We face an inner landscape — a tactile memory we didn’t know we carried within us.

The working method of Marc Gonz consists in burying layer upon layer; in this process of burial, a face is configured, part of the disorder and the error to find harmony. Marc Gonz's works through matter and color present a distorted version of reality. The brutality and density of the brushstroke reveal a visceral work, sometimes vibrant, grotesque and primitive, but at the same time it expresses deep emotions, which recall the ancestral, the spiritual, going to the essence without artifices, an excavation of the soul. With a mix of abstraction and expressionism they create a transformation of the human form, where its meaning transcends. All of this gives us an idea of his complexity and leads us along the path to the deepest parts of the unconscious. The artist himself makes his own paintings, achieving a thick impasto technique in which he recreates in the density of the paint, molding large pulsing masses. The volume of the brushstrokes turns the works into almost sculptural pieces, creating microcosms that adopt their own identity when we approach.
