Alexis Portilla "Particles"
Causey Contemporary
This event has ended.
Alexis states that he is always searching for the dominant characteristics or the basic identity for a new body of work. A vocabulary of shapes and images that he has used in many incarnations over the years are a guide to begin all new work. Regardless of media or perceived subject matter, this approach allows him to gain access to the underlying architecture of a painting. Sometimes he explores atmosphere and color with minimal imagery, while at other times he uses line and deeply layered mark making. His goal is not to focus on any one mode of formalism or abstraction in a particular body of work, but to let the natural development of the piece describe the interplay between all modes of visual expression and possibility.
