TRANSITIONS
Transitions is a reflection of the constant duality between the creative process and the finished work. In essence, the work itself becomes a field of oscillation, and it is within this oscillation that it finds its meaning and purpose.

To rethinking,
oscillating between the process of the artwork
and the artwork itself.__
As a field of oscillation,
without oscillation, there is no artwork.
Its process and its culmination.
Like the reality that surrounds us,
ever-changing as well.
The intertwined colors
interact with white,
seeking juxtaposition,
the transition,
understood as a change,
understood as a movement.
Transition from chromatic verticality to the color
palette,
always expanding.
The artwork is not the color,
the artwork is a path to color.
Color exists before the artwork does,
the artwork will come with time
built from the inside out.
The artwork, as something more, is ENERGY.

The colors, carefully interwoven by the artist, interact with white, gradually seeking juxtaposition. It is within this juxtaposition that we find the transition, which in this context can be understood as a change, a movement, a flow of energy, a recycling of the same. This transition is not limited solely to a formal change but transcends to a deeper level where the works resonate with each other, creating a visual symphony that evolves as we move through the space, crossing invisible lines of connection that keep the canvases in constant conversation.
This exhibition marks a transition from the initial chromatic verticality to a broader and more diverse palette; genuine and light. It is a testimony to how Claudia Valsells has evolved over time and a testament to this quest for new horizons.
This time, under a crucial motto: the work is the path to color. Color exists before the work takes shape and gradually reveals itself as we progress in the creative process. The work is built from the inside out, as an ever-developing process enriched with every brushstroke and every decision made in the studio.
We are not just talking about a mixture of colors and forms. It is a source of energy, a manifestation of the deep connection between the artist.
