JORGE VICÉN

Huesca, Spain, 1980

Jorge Vicén understands the creative act as a way of building himself, insofar as his implication is absolute; destruction and construction of psychic identity, understood as irremediably and voluntarily signifying structures. Jorge Vicén makes his drawings in ink on paper, meticulous, maniacal, subtly violent, without prior sketch and compulsively, with a record that has more of a vital instinct than a method and with the conviction that he prefers a world in which his Drawings exist.
Vicén explores the subconscious in works that become psychic landscapes in which he portrays himself at the same time that he challenges us. Vicén produces his works from an automatism that expands from the psychoanalytic exploration of the subconscious to the shamanism that seeks to transcend that self and to the distortion of symbols that moves between the Situationism and the Punk.
