If you're an artist, what kind of art do you make?
Film, Installation, Painting, Video
I am...
an Anglo-Mexican Artist based in Nottingham. I have been exhibiting painting, film and sound/music both nationally and internationally since 2000.

I am frustrated musician.
About my artwork
I am very conscious of the difference between rational thought, chance and the exercise of instinct or intuition within the creative process of painting, and have sought ways in which all three can be employed together in forming images.

The work explores the material identity and language of abstract painting, questioning its histories and boundaries, much like the work of contemporary painters, Fabian Marcaccio, Beatriz Milhaze and Jonathan Lasker. My recent paintings explore how meaning can be impregnated in the way paint is applied, aiming to create subtle narratives for the viewer to decipher.
Artists I like
Marcel Duchamp, Fabian Marcaccio, James Turrell, Brian Eno, James Whitney, Bryan Wynter, Henri Michaux.
Interests
Air Guitar, Painting (obviously), Bird Watching, Reading, most things really.

Hi Geoff, hows things going with your studio, would be good to meet up some point soon to maybe talk about some collaborative bits if you interested. I've just moved into the new studio so if you want to meet up maybe could do in our new space if you want. Let me know when is good for you. Cheers Eddie

Hello Geoff,
Don't forget the meeting with Stone Soup on Tuesday 6pm about how they're going to evict us.
Join the campaign - fight for your studio - tell the world how the Stone Soup so called "Community Interest Company" want to destroy our community!
Check out the SOS page here on ArtReview.
Cheers, Mik

Hi Geoff,
Just wondering if you had collected the work from the Southwell show, if so let me know and we'll have to meet up for a drink when i collect them. I have just sorted details for new studio that I'll move into at the beginning of next year which is a bit of a relief! Hope the concusion is all a vague memory now. See you later
