Carlos Rodríguez-Méndez

Artist

Born in As Neves, Pontevedra, in 1968. Lives and works in Madrid

Rodríguez-Méndez works on projects that involve differentiated languages outside the influence of the exhibition space and that analyse the material principles of sculpture itself and the essential and physical experience of man. An approach to the nexus between action and sculpture and the balance of materials and energetic influence between the two.

The use of cylinders, peat and oil, sound, word and body interpreted as ungraspable forms and materials, as elementary and absolute geometries, question and alter the process of construction and the decision on the completion of a work.

Rodríguez-Méndez intervenes on the incorporeality of the material and the open and latent condition of his works, in a play of losses and restitutions that testify to the definitive and essential presence of life and change.
