From June 28 to August 30 you can visit the new exhibition in the Sala Alfajar. Sensitivity, pastel tones, ports and markets define these paintings.
Molina’s painting moves between the figurative and the abstract, with a very personal touch. The exhibition will be open from June 28 to August 30, next to the Cathedral, at C/ Císter, 1, door 2, Málaga.
Molina works with pastel colors and figures that become increasingly simpler, but no less recognizable. He likes the harmony of colors and softness in these, but he also plays with textures, using the spatula a lot to create reliefs. He is inspired by the sea of his hometown, by coastal spaces, markets and stalls, reflections and symmetries to create his paintings. He takes photographs and then simplifies them, giving them his own style.
J.M. Molina Castro questions the act of seeing, unlearns it to relearn it, thus placing himself in the moments prior to when we all agreed to call reality what was represented before our eyes.
Thus, to deal with matter in its most varied forms, with chance, with technique and with history, the artist, Molina Castro, strips his gaze of unnecessary ornaments, prejudices, and superfluous fashions in order to be able to look as he does and that we can all learn from it.
