JUAN ORTIZ PORTAS

My work is an ongoing exploration of abstraction, a realm where form and color transcend their traditional boundaries to evoke emotion, thought, and perception. I am deeply drawn to the idea of creating spaces that exist between clarity and chaos, where recognizable shapes dissolve into pure sensation. Through abstraction, I aim to break free from the constraints of representational art, allowing the viewer to engage with a piece from a visceral, to an emotional, or to a spirtitual level rather than through familiar associations. This freedom enables me to express complex ideas about identity, time, mind, consciousness expansion and experience without the limitations of specific imagery, encouraging a deeper, more intuitive connection to the work.

As an artist, I am constantly experimenting with new tools, techniques, and technologies to expand the language of abstraction. Whether it’s integrating digital media, artificial intelligence, or innovative mixed-media processes, I seek to push the boundaries of what is possible in art-making. My practice embraces the idea that technology is not only a tool but also an integral part of the creative process, providing new ways to manipulate materials, generate patterns, and explore form. The combination of traditional methods with cutting-edge technology allows me to create works that are both dynamic and forward-thinking, as I continue to navigate the intersection of the organic and the digital.
