“The eye absorbs... the brain create forms”Paul Cézanne

Magnifing glass is a project focus on interpreting the structure of light and color using geometry and minimalism.

Sometimes the formal aspect of something, don’t let us appreciate other features. Using the tecnology of pixel, as they becomes smaller, they just add more color shades.

Everything goes and comes as concepts, languages, ideas, ways, people… As soon as we let something go away we just catch up with something else until we die. A point has been influenced and at the same time, it is influencing others. Connections can break, being interrupted and can create new ones, drawing an open map, connectable in all his dimension, removable, changeable, susceptible to constant modification.
