The multiversos inhabited by objets trouvé Raimundo Rodriguez.

Luck or setback? The gaming world and of the vices is somewhat, also, the attractive world of numbers, shapes and colors. Interestingly, in physics and Cosmology, the idea of the existence of multiple universes simultaneously is admitted by some theories. These confirm the opportunity to live in one of the many dimensions or as they are called, in one of the numerous "multiversos". Proven or not in the field of physics, correct is stating that a conceptual proposition can be converted into an equation (formal logic), and that under the gaze of mathematics, everything that exists, exist in numbers, in calculations and repetitions. It could then, in this sense, by means of a metaphor, extend poetically, to the field of Visual Arts the existence of these "multiversos", more precisely, by moving them to the multifaceted production of artist Raymond Rodriguez.

Such "multiversos", formed from the artistic subjectivity would with excellence the complexity and creative ability as a postmodern generator dash of numerous languages that cross, producing different paintings, drawings, objects, "non-objects", assemblages/collages, and sculptures. Luck!

These countless categorical dimensions in which Rodriguez's work seems to use multiplying endlessly, lies a subtle finding, concerning the presence of playful elements that juxtaposed dialogue with another invisible universe, among many possible, that is the universe of games played and expenses, the letters used, the ironic ballots clovers and undecipherable win-loss.

A riddle and a hypnotic delirium, how that affects the player of Dostoyevsky, making him see stars in the daytime. Rodriguez bets are high, Despite the title of the exhibition indicate the construction of a "look" aesthetic bit surprised, but no less charming; a "look" ripe, and already knowledgeable of the artist's creations. However, It is remarkable to see the unique step of the process by which the artist crosses, it means, Since the large estates of the last years, made, still exclusively from the manipulation of paint cans (their "leftovers” the world” Favorites), until its conversion in distinct estates, as those made of fabric, carpet, Formica, paper. Abusing vivid colors, the inveterate mathematical game of shapes present in the geometry of harmonic squares and triangles that interpenetrate almost infinitely by means of folds and redobras – as the golden rectangle and the Fibonacci spiral, the play on words that blend in cunning neologisms, and the unrestricted use of various materials, such as: ballots, carpet, fabric, photographs, paint cans, playing cards, milk cartons, etc.., the artist will populate your multiversos exponentially with individuals objets trouvé, not categorised, through works called: "Lucky Clover", "Latifundia", "Interior Masquerading", "Lactofúndios", "Slides", among others, in the exhibition "Multiverse: nothing you haven't seen before ". Bets on the table. The data are, anyway, released.
