Geronimo Gonzalez Salinas -
The soul, body and the elements of nature are fused together in a harmonious
and balanced, where all these factors interact, resulting in a vast, pure
and uncontrollable discharge of positive energy, which motivates our lives,
makes us dream and that everything remains in a constant movement, change,
imagination, evolution.
In each of my
pieces, I seek to translate and pass on this sentiment,
bringing so frozen in time and space, in situations where
our imaginations can take us so far, to where fear allows.
Knowing that the
wave size is the size of your fears, if your fears are overcome,
the wave will never be as great, always pleasant, and you have
strength, desire and motivation to go much bigger on the other,
although we are a tumble, something we stop learning, always
looking for the perfect wave, just as each wave has its
particular essence and magic, transforming your life in an
eternal experience of extreme happiness.
The sea
gives me the opportunity to realize this dream through SOUL SURFERS snails (soul
surfer), where after his death, I give eternal afterlife, serves as the
spiritual expression.
SOUL
SURFERS lamps, are made in real snail's shell, are not
manufactured, which makes them unique and irreplaceable,
the fundamental basis of the work I nature, through
imagination lead us to internalize and recreate a sound
wave miniature surf, these are painted polychrome under
multiple techniques to various temperatures, to mimic
the seawater.
The snail is built
according to their shape and size, and different types of bamboo
timber sealed and polished, this being the base and legs, the
words on the base are carved in low relief as well as strengthen
their strokes with pyrography techniques. The surfer miniature
is made directly proportional to the size and shape of the wave,
varying according to the maneuver these they are doing.
My dream is to make each person to observe and integrate parts
can vibrate your soul, feelings and imagination at the moment,
leading him to star in the excitement of running a big wave,
this void in the stomach, the amazing speed, forgetting to
everything and live that moment as unique and special encounter
with himself, communing with nature is to be alive!
With my work I show that really
THE CREST OF THE WAVE DATES BACK EVERY DAY, second by second.
You know? I'm a survivor of a stem stroke, which left me sequels,
they face day to day, always in the fight to beat a physical
situation temporary. Certainly learning is infinite, I now
devote myself to translate all mounted and riding waves. The
daily challenge is, we can all !!!!!!!! Life always surfing on
the crest of the wave. THANK GOD AND THE VIRGIN miracles
exist !!!!!!!!.
Do not leave for
tomorrow the wave that can sail today, as never open another
like you do not know if this is the last, so strong and take it
rema, LIVE !!!!! That's my legacy, is what I want to convey with
my pieces, snails Soul Surfers, surf inspire you, live and
breathe every moment to the fullest, be happy.
"ALL SECURE
SURFER WITH ONLY THE SURF vehemence that makes life
worthwhile, EVERYTHING ELSE IS SOLELY wasted time between
two waves. GERRY LOPEZ, PIPELINE MASTER.
