Affatus IX (Nigredo), 2018
The type of emotion [his works] emit reveal links between memory, language, and absence.
Jesús Hernández Verano (Tenerife, 1970) works in an artistic flow informed by thoughts, gestures, and friction, composing a map for his process. From this understanding, he models, tests, and discovers ways to witness his works. He chooses to work with heterogeneous materials, for their striking physical presence and for the energy they carry, as the physical and conceptual starting point of a piece.
