Sergio Romero - Memorias

Canvas prepared to be mounted on a 92x65 cm stretcher. It is delivered in a rigid tube and rolled up.

This work is part of a recent pictorial research in which automatic gesture, spatial structure, and symbolic repetition become a single visual language. Although at first glance they may seem impulsive or spontaneous, each one arises from a process of observation and refinement derived from a much more architectural and precise previous work, developed over years through markers, linear drawing, and manual construction of space.

In this new series, that precision does not disappear: it transforms.

The line ceases to behave only as contour or structure and begins to act also as energy, rhythm, and physical expansion on the surface. The gesture is freed, but an internal system of organization remains. The signs repeat, the paths cross, the tensions balance, and the space is delimited by an invisible architecture that supports the whole composition.

Each work functions as a moving mental map: layers of memory, impulses, routes, and emotional structures that coexist within the same plane. The apparent chaos is traversed by conscious decisions about density, void, balance, saturation, and visual direction.

The repetition of frames, orbits, neural lines, and circular cores generates its own recognizable grammar across the series. It is not about accident or pure automatism, but about an inquiry into how to translate thought, tension, and sensitivity into a contemporary pictorial script.

Acrylic paint here replaces part of the rigidity of technical drawing with a more bodily and physical presence. The work is no longer merely constructed: it also happens. The stroke retains the memory of movement, of time, and of the direct gesture, while always maintaining the same visual stamp that defines the whole body of the investigation.

These pieces oscillate between:

- drawing and painting,
- control and expansion,
- architecture and automatism,
- writing and abstraction.

The result is a series that proposes its own visual language, where gestural intensity coexists with a rigorous internal structure and where each composition acts as a direct extension of a mental, emotional, and spatial system in permanent transformation.
