Francisco Cintolesi

In my work, the idea of ​​reality is objected, making it incomplete or fractured. With this, I try to subtract some degree of certainty in order to install a question that will never be answered. This provoked anxiety results in uncomfortable beauty.
The goal is to isolate the circumstances that give time its identity, by being thorough in one aspect, while breaking the language in others. It is a visual strategy.
