Espacio combinado #4 2002

Pablo Rey made Espacio Combinado #4 using what looks like a brisk application of ink or paint on paper. See how the lines dance and weave! The process of making art is all about this kind of playful exploration. The artwork’s surface is so simple. The lines are thin and the colors are like whispers – reds, greens, blues – just enough to tickle your senses. Look at that spiraling red shape near the middle, almost like a target, but wobbly and alive. It draws you in, doesn't it? It's like a focal point, but it's also just another element in this lively composition. Rey's work reminds me a bit of Joan Miró, that joyous sense of freedom and abstraction. But Rey's got his own thing going on. It's not about perfection; it's about the energy and the conversation between the artist and the materials. In the end, art is not about answers, it's about possibilities.
