Sr. Gotta

Sr. Gotta

Painting as a field of friction, transforming impact and violence into ambiguous semblances of power.

SERIES

Abstraction addresses violence as a phenomenon inherent to the human experience and to the socio-cultural structures that organize contemporary life. Far from understanding it as an origin, the series focuses on the conflict that precedes it: that prior friction —political, social, economic, institutional, or symbolic— which, when it finds no instruments of resolution, leads to violent action. From there, Sr. Gota proposes a dialogue that activates consciousness and breaks with normalized apathy, shifting the gaze from the visible impact to the conditions that produce and sustain it. On a formal level, Abstraction marks a reductionist turn that does not soften the blow, but rather makes it more precise. The work purifies elements to highlight the materiality of painting, keeping the stroke, the stain, and the splatter as protagonists, but placing them in a territory of fragility and limits.
