Angel Ricardo creates a new aesthetic composed of his symbolic motifs. He gives it coherence and importance by repeating the elements he has invented. These are everyday objects that have assumed organic properties and amorphous expressions and become like hallucinations. By isolating structures from their basic function and amplifying their material qualities to render extreme sensation, he presents us with a clear sculptural reality or a certain ambiguity between metaphorical objects and playthings that are the quite the opposite of toys.

Such a style of working verifies the comment of Emmanuel Kant: “Artistic beauty doesn’t mean the representation of a beautiful object, but the representation of an object beautifully.”
