A small piece registered as untitled was donated to the museum in 1995. Its lack of name, whether it was the artist’s decision or an omission in its registration, opens up the interpretation to a world of meanings. A white board with protrusions and holes marks rhythms in a kind of binary code that presents an ensemble of undulated and dotted surfaces in sets of one and two incisions, which never add up more than three. There are no recognizable shapes from the outside world, only rhythmic protrusions and cavities, placed in four lines, in series of seven, except the first one, which breaks the symmetric content with eight figures. It is a codex of dots, textures, echoes and cells on a white rectangle that opens the imagination to possibilities based on a style both reminiscent of Paul Klee’s melodic abstractions and primitive cultures’ simple formations.
