About the Item
" The work resists framing in concepts, it overflows the contours and borders of the rational. It is through the presence of color, combined with an abstraction at times with expressionist and other surrealist overtones, where the work expands into various formats and supports (acrylics, oils, pastels, charcoal, asphalt paint, synthetic enamel, on canvas , paper, wood and steel) transiting mixed materialities that overlap, crushing the apparent figures against heterogeneous backgrounds.
The work generates a sensation of fluidity, of liquids, of movement. Sensation of being in a celluloid space, inhabited by atoms, particles, that are in constant movement. This creates the idea of a corporeal space within the body. Of microorganisms, microscopic systems. Generating a sensation of the macro and the micro. Macrocosm and microcosm. I wonder: Are we one or are we all? Are we something alone, individual, or are we connected, interrelated? How is it that such a tiny universe in turn reproduces itself in everyone, therefore becoming an immense massive universe? How is the movement from the smaller universe to the larger universe understood? What gives or maintains that movement?
Franco's work plays between the limit and the no limit, imagining the idea of macro universes and micro cosmos, combining them in the same space, mixing, separating and uniting dimensions. It is through the presence of color, combined with an abstraction sometimes with expressionist and many other surreal overtones, where his work expands in various formats and supports (acrylics, oils, pastels, charcoal, asphalt paint, synthetic enamel, on canvas, paper, wood and steel) transiting mixed materialities that overlap, crushing the apparent figures against heterogeneous backgrounds.

Plastic ADN V and IV, Diptych. Mixed media Abstract painting on a stretcher
By Alec Franco
Located in Miami Beach, FL
DNA is genetic information, hidden and encrypted in body fluids. Veiled data that we load, that we do not know and that someone knows how to decipher. Such specifications characterize us in our concrete individuality, make us unrepeatable and yet resist us. That chain of molecules constitutes a conglomerate of clues that someone elucidates because we do not know how to read it. We do not know the links that make up that nucleic acid that delineates us and characterizes us genetically. Curious phenomenon of not having access to such precise and accurate data about oneself. They skimp on us, they deny us despite having more authority than anyone to know their own characteristics. The geneticist, the scientist, is the one who can illustrate our exact and unique genetic conformation. We are carriers of a key that identifies us but we do not know. Alec Franco...
