The landscape painting is memory and imagination, it evolves in the pictorial space and reaches beyond it as a land grab. It is a succession of states that deny any claim to finality, a becoming and fading away, a transformation in which the process of painting enables and permits a fruitful coincidence. And in which the artist intervenes again and again to give form to chance. The chronology of growth is inscribed in the layers of paint.
