Fausto Fernandez Paintings

The blue prints, sewing patterns and maps in my work represent the guides that we follow in our life to create a more stable way to go through daily routines. These are a few examples of materials that I use in my work to associate the way relationships work in a mechanical manner. These mechanical relationships used on a daily basis (i.e. time guides, numbers, and laws) and our will to maintain mechanical relationship is how we lack freedom.
