Based on a collective project promoted by the Assembly    Amárica, of which Digeneso is a part: “Ien Loveno which had free access to recycling materials, this material began to form an essential part of his work   both in painting and sculpture.

According to the author: “I am interested in an open, deliberately ambiguous work that provokes a free interpretation in the viewer, a collaboration en   his

conclusion . I am referring to unfinished works that call for a co-creation process between producer and receiver, a total response, intellectual and physical at the same time. La   painting, photography and sculpture to the rescue of a "moment" in the flow of the landscape.  The record of a sense in the constant transformation of an environment that struggles to recover another balance. The provisional, the arbitrary, the casual as   referente”.
