say "sculpture" is too short stay. It is true that Maojo works in principle with the concepts, procedures and tools of the sculptor, and that wood is the raw material of his work. But, as has been happening for years, its ability to overwhelm the sculpture in all directions, to painting, to architecture, even to the music or literature, makes Paul Maojo in much more than just a sculptor. And, likewise, surprised their ability to modulate a variety of records ranging from the minimalist, playful or witty, the tiny and almost nonexistent, sometimes even a vacuum, to the monumental, the poignancy and even overwhelming.
In this final section rounded presence of spare parts and body fit in my lloréu mycelium, where are the absolute protagonists exempt the sheer volume, the organic nature of wood and the beauty of the naked grain, the imposing Hard life in the gallery ... firedamp emotional construction oak and iron, full of tunnels, passages, sections threatening deterioration, the significant dislodges box, in which Maojo assembles a sort of summa that harmoniously interwoven bodies in two languages \u200b\u200bof geometry and the gross mass, the raw wood and subtly treated, or Meeting, where he also played with the duplication of forms, but this time running in one piece. And above all stands the colossal gap geologic Jurassic a relief in which the wood takes quality minerals and fossils.
At the other end, East becomes, in effect, the easternmost in the subtlety and economy of means Hexagram to trigram a sort of minimal musical construction, or evoke, intensify constructive in this case, New York's urban landscape in A NY. In underside, Through a simple twist of the arrangement of the piece apart while painting and sculpture in which the title becomes a kind of compressed instructions to read the work. Spaces expectant is a delightful exercise exigua architecture, and red bars Perhaps a micropoems size in a pattern of incisions and holes, while Box face leaves the viewer at an intermediate point between portrait sculpture and architecture. In all cases, the suggestiveness literary titles multiplies the enjoyment of works by making those who look forward to what sounds like a charade or riddle, or with labels that sound poem, for example, John Ashbery (location in the avalanche on the circumstances).
Spaces expectantly.
Finally, another block of work is closer to the pictorial to use increasingly brash and chromatically rich pigments and new methods for treating wood, such as oxides dissolved in vinegar that permeate a delicate golden halo: The lluch pol'azabache; the powerful and deep Unrest; Amares, a high profile in blue monochrome with curved rhythms and wavy in Maojo unpublished; Marines frames a feast of colors, symbols and ideograms that is both a story and a storyboard native landscape artist carved in wood in the structure Maojo keeps references to painters as Torres García.
Marines frames.
