Artist Statement 

I have identified "the excessive specialization of knowledge and the misuse of technology today," as the possible cause of the transformation in the way we think, perceive and create. I wonder; How to activate that part that human being is mislaying? Consciousness. To this end, I propose and develop a Poetic-theoretical model of perception-creation [Daniel Romero Nieto, Morphogenesis as Superstructure, 2015]. Blending the scientific methodologies with the artistic practice arousing; Introspection as a research instrument that not only enhances the process of creation but also stimulates the quality of life. 

The philosophy, which I develop in artistic practice, emerges from introspection and constant reflection throughout my life. Exploration in the visual arts and my training as an Architect and Scientist create my holistic observation and arouse my interest in the construction/deconstruction of reality, where I investigate the object in space in it’s "internal structure and its constituent parts at different scales.”

 

The creative process plays the fundamental role in this research. This exercise begins with setting down the mind and experience non-thinking process. Letting the automatic impulses of instinct, absent from logic, unmodified by knowledge or reason ascends to the surface. Natural, primitive act are the beginnings of an active imagination, which allows penetrating in the processes of the unconscious mind. I become an interlocutor between what I discover on the canvas and the viewer. Uncertainty and improvisation are essential for my work, but freedom and space are the main elements in my artistic practice.

 

My atelier functions as a scientific laboratory, in which I design my pictorial materials and does experiments with a range of source materials used, such as; wood, glass, aluminum, metal, and fabric.  I hanker to decode my language and thereby convert hypotheses and models into a possible one; "Holographic Aesthetic Theory."

 

Now, I am working on the expansion of the digitalization and immersive installations to diffuse the relationship between the viewers - artwork, engage the audience and amplify their perception within the work. The significance of the work entirely changed by their scale.

Romero conceives art as a scientific means to explore reality and the human being.
