Artist: Maria Gil

George Nees, a man fascinated by mathematics and straight lines and squares. His works were mathematically precise.
His art was somewhat avant-garde for its time. One of the first in the creation of arts by computers. His work “Schotter”, from 1960, was the inspiration for the creation of this painting. It begins with perfect squares in an arranged line, but as you analyze the work, the squares begin to overlap each other, becoming dispersed and distanced. This work invites the viewer to follow the path of the paintings, which separate at the end, causing the viewer to observe one of the two or turn their gaze to both sides of the work.
If taken from a semiotic perspective, each person can give it their own meaning, but somehow they arrive at the same feeling of distance.

Technical, aesthetic and conceptual development

a composition that is brief. During the first thirty seconds, the viewer was delighted with a dynamic path that leaves a trail and the rest of the time a static image of overlapping rectangles, generating a sensation of depth.
