VOYAGE TO THE CENTER

The biological poetry of Venuz White
By Eduardo Serrano

The pictorial work of Venuz white has an eloquently contemporary in its conceptions and implications. The artist express herself with painting but her canvases lack of references in the history of styles, and even thought her purposes can be qualified as abstract in the procedure she uses, her images remind us immediately of an inner world, a biological one, in which like amplified cellular membranes, meticulously cover the total surface of the canvas. It can be said then, that her work splits in two complementary directions, one in which her investigations mainly regards the behavior of color in acrylic painting, in reference to its essence and chemistry, and the other one in which imagination leads to a poetic approach of the unseen, as if penetrating natures epidermis, uncovering a microscopic universe, invisible to the human eye, but at the same time vibrant and vital.

Regarding her chromatic investigation, even thought her work begins with a predetermined palette of colors she allows the relationship of colors to conform a composition, in which they react according random acts of chance. For instance her experiments of the behavior of color under different chemical reactions ends up in expansions and contractions within the colors, creating intensities and aura type of surrounding when they merge with each other. As to metaphoric implications of her scientific inspiration, her work invites the viewer to make a voyage to the center, towards his inner self, as if announcing the chance of discovering, in the same way when traveling visually the surface of her paintings, infinity of tinny universes, small cellular forms, all of them part of a harmonic and stimulating whole, however each one with its own particular life.

In the first three seconds a new universe comes into construction; the chemical magnetism creates the map of an internal landscape.

CONVERSATIONS BETWEEN LOVERS

In a liquid atmosphere a chemical dance begins, they attract each other, they repel each other, they expand, they are so intimately close and at the same time so far away. Ssolitarily they conform into cells that move through space, occasionally melting with each other, and tuning in the same wavelength finally finding their place . A biological topography appears into the eye of the viewer, or even an aerial view of a cellular terrain, where the chemistry of an emotion materializes, and its chromatic vibration allow to escape a hidden sound in fragments of color. In a voyage to a foreign world, a conversation between lovers begin to take action, like a genetic code where information becomes life, thought becomes matter, and the invisible, visible.

CHEMICAL LOVE
What's this all about?
How do you do it?

Fragments of an interview related to this work 2006 It s a metaphor of human lovea chemical reactions between human beings.

The falling drop A drop falls into a substance, liquid in form. The drop falls deep inside Then it starts becoming out of a voyage of absorption. Different in shape and color. She (the drop) comes from inside impregnated of a new substance A bit of it just become a part Just an aura reveals a fusion between two universes that melt inside each other with in a second. Why do you do it? Cause I like the metaphor of human being behavior as a second of chemical Creation. Just a matter of time.
