Girona, 1962.
Period of residence in Piramidón: Since April 1995.
Work: With the landscape as a nearly exclusive genre, Pere Ribot captures imaginary places and spaces upon the canvas. It is a question of expaniding horizons that occupy the entire canvas, seeking a combination of geometry with something fantastic and mystical. The artist works through the superposition of layers. The first, a nearly imperceptible monochrome relief that acts as a transparent base for the different overlays that harmoniously combine as they expand across the fabric. Firm brushstrokes are mixed with dripping that help determine this contemplative atmosphere that seems to join, for a brief moment, the sky and the earth.
