JONATHAN BRENDER

Investigating everything related to circles in his works, with the presence of symbols of unity,
reaching perfection, and for sure the infinite...

His works are not the result of improvisation,
the abstraction that he attains is the result of imitation of the process of light, of life, of growing up.

Jonathan's work is a presentation of the origin and evolution of shapes seen from their inside.

The artist allows his instincts to guide him, perhaps he investigates this spiral that
slowly develops inside ourselves, which we are part of and which is part of us.
His paintings of large dimensions impose themselves as fragments of universe or
spaces where life flows through light and colour.

Although the pictures that are part of this series could refer us to semi-abstracts
elements, such as a process of abstraction which starts from reality, the more the work
is developed, the more the arfwork becomes concrete.
The emotions induced by the colour, in all its shades, determines a silent fading of it.

Jonathan's art is concrete because of the use of pictorial elements such as lines,
surfaces, circles, spaces and colours, which gain a specific and independent value.

This is not the case of establishing associations of ideas, but instead of highlighting
the importance of pictorial elements. This makes us think of terms of structures, or
rather geometrical abstractions, but always with the intention of reaching a balance
and harmony of the elements, stressing the real or relative value of colour.

Light gold is present in most of his works, obtaining a composition very complex and
of great magnitude.
He attempts to approach the aesthetic quality that each element possesses on its own,
as well as his equilibrium relating himself to the whole picture.
