Xavi Mira (1974, Barcelona) 30 years immersed in the depths of drugs and alcohol. A hell in a loop took hold of me and self-destruction tore at the very core of my being. But suffering makes you grow and my pain was transformed into art. Years of internal work until I finally learned to relate to other people again. Painting has provided me with that shelter I longed for, that peace that is provided, that appears with a clear and serene mind, that allows you to slide through the world, despite adversity, with a new veteran innocence, an innocence torn by years of shadows. Now I feel alive when I paint. The creation of a work begins when I think of it, looking for the music I will listen to, going to buy the material, tidying up the studio, gathering ideas and colours (should I add an animal?), deciding the size of the canvas, etc… My working method is based on accumulating ideas, images, experiences and feelings. The moment comes when the brush caresses the canvas! An inexplicable connection arises for me. That is where everything moves, is measured, eliminated, aligned, mixed, added, measured again… It is the consented and consensual chaos that will end up being a new painting. I see art every time I look, every time I think. Any routine, everyday or unexpected and involuntary moment is an opportunity to create. I represent in my canvases the sensations of images that surprise me at first sight. In each work there is a part of me that disappears to make room for new emotions. Painting is a constant cleansing and sanction of the being. The more I paint, the more I live. Permanent artist in Artevistas Gallery #artgallerybarcelona #artbarcelona #art #artgallery
