Subtitle: SIEMPRE SUEÑOS
Blurb:
This book brings together four of Alexis Mata’s most significant series: Sueñan las flores que desaparecen (2021), Oniric Shapes (2023), Antes de que nos despierten (2023), and Fata Morgana (2024). Though created at different moments, they all emerge from the realm of dreams. A fervent subconscious reveals itself through diverse artistic mediums, including painting, sculpture, drawing, stained glass, and tapestry.
From the earliest sketches to the final works, this book traces a visual and conceptual map of the artist’s process, where observation becomes the cornerstone of creation. The title "Siempre somos solo sueños" serves as a symbolic closing statement, marking the end of a cycle in which the artist recognizes that his work unfolds often unknowingly from the depths of the unconscious.
