Description
"There are ghosts that haunt us disguised as shadows and they don't dissipate at the opening, on the contrary: they grow bigger each time a new spectator connects with a piece. And it is in this last instant when a double trick is played on the board: terror and ecstasy play the clairvoyance before nothingness, like when you walk towards the sunset of a summer sun and you suddenly turn to contemplate your shadow, which grows obscene with every step, and suddenly you remember that soon the light will fall and you will return to what you are: a ghost of the future."
Nano Abia (b. 1978)
Nano's work is intuitive and multidisciplinary (painting, sculpture, installation or mural painting), sometimes even combining several techniques in the same work.
His dynamic compositions start from figuration and anthropomorphic forms to become almost abstract images. Overlapping or fused bodies blend together in a precarious equilibrium. In his latest works, the image is distorted, as he tends to break down the human figure even further, reducing it to basic parts such as noses, mouths or eyes that reinforce this sense of abstraction.
They are almost dreamlike scenarios, often combined with recurring symbols: brick walls, pierced wire fences, broken wooden palisades... Objects that encourage intrusion and transgression, like masks. Barriers that suggest and conceal a truth, giving clues but avoiding clarifying the painted (or sculpted) reality. An ambiguity that is perhaps the most decisive characteristic of his work.
After graduating in Fine Arts at the University of Pontevedra, he made a brief stay in London, studying at schools such as Saint Martins School of Arts and the London College of Printing. In 2004 he moved to Madrid to develop his artistic work and began to exhibit in galleries and institutions both in Spain and abroad. Among the many projects in which he has participated we could highlight Planet Prozess in Berlin, the exhibition Urbanitas at the MARCO in Vigo and Street.
