Daniel Verbis (León, 1968) is an unorthodox artist who experiments with a wide variety of materials, including resins, plasticine, buttons, threads and wool, rope, and plastic canvas, which have traditionally remained outside the realm of painting techniques. A graduate in Fine Arts from the University of Salamanca between 1986 and 1991, his work combines installations with painting, integrating both in a playful game that prioritizes questions and interrogations. In his artistic work, Verbis ignores the traditional differences and antagonisms between painting and sculpture, and his images are open, revealing the process that allows the viewer to resume reading in another work where the same motif is resolved with a different technique. The frame of the canvases is frequently an important part of the final meaning of the image, which turns his works into visual keys for the viewer to interpret the mechanisms of artistic meaning. In his latest works, Verbis focuses on foil and drawing, projecting colored circles and creating designs with oils, pens, and threads. His work focuses on essentialist forms or assemblages of clean, unadorned shapes and exemplifies the transgression of boundaries between artistic genres. In short, Verbis is a highly creative and transgressive contemporary artist whose work challenges conventions and explores new aesthetic territories.
