“Behind the austerity of my work lies the intention of retaining the
images of the places where I passed by, with the knowledge that
everything is condemned to a form of destruction. My references
respond more to a personal biography than to a collective memory.
In essence, I like to construct a poetry of environmental decay as a
constant chord.”
Colombian-born Jose Pachecho Silva’s current series of work consists
of monochromatic paintings on paper board.
