"When I write, paint, film or photograph, my intention is to use what is real to debunk the real itself. Every art manifestation is, from my point of view, a way to wake up, to pull out of oneself, to question. It is a shock therapy that gently, and without prejudice, helps the individual to take a second glance to its surroundings with the same eyes but with a different look. My work is based on constant perceptual becoming, on the continuous exploration of the world and the senses, rooted in the most profound doubt that remains beyond any certainty, imposed truth, and established paradigm. The expression of this endless process of searching and objecting, aims significance through the artistic creation. Hereby, in texts, I search for contradictions, euphemisms, metamessages, and references. In images, the search is for the semiotic, the minimalistic, the childish and simple, hoping to achieve a propagandistic result that can strike whoever sees, whoever perceives, whoever is willing to see beyond the apparent. To attain something that, like a koan, will resound until becoming an echo of thoughts themselves."- Vincent Forte
