Centring his imaginative output on celluloid, Isidre Manils projects visual narratives of apparently unrelated universes open to conceptual constructs formed by viewers’ perceptions. Pictorial poesy deployed at random on the canvas, imperceptibly traversing the private interiors of memory. The sense of inhabited space, the shadow of a presence; the gates that open and close our existential evolution, the chromatic intensity – emitted by the ever-sensual textures of the fabrics – or the seduction of an inverted neon word warning of the vicissitudes of the underworld constitute the voice of a compiler of images who digs into the interstices of everyday life. Traspasseu-ho (the title refers to a poem by Carles Hac Mor dedicated to the painter for an exhibition held in 2015 at the Galeri Cànem entitled Les portes del paradís) displays recent work by the artist, including the unshown piece 91 m.
