Cesar Gonzalez

Born in 1986 in Colombia
Lives and works in Bogotá, Colombia

To start and make some context, a reflection upon human relationships (towards mankind, towards the world, towards the unknown), with the unfolding associations they have, and the question of how you are understanding your world, are principal guidelines of my work, in which the potential of an image as an instrument of knowledge, as principle of organization, as synthesis is reflected. I understand them as a potentially and organic micro-situations which seems to be an unfinished harmony, a construction without center, neither ordered nor disordered, flexible and in constant transformation.

That’s why I also think this images as aphorisms, not as illustration but as analogies, as concentrations of information and energy, as situations that tends to grow, that tends to develop, individually, but not necessarily isolated; images (and the ideas behind them) are interconnected, articulated as thoughts, memories, dreams, projections and realities that generate an environment, a constellation of relationships.
