Measuring with the body

There are four formats that I have identified. The sedimentation of colours has taken place for years on these specific measurements. They are the dimensions that I think reassume the characteristics of painting on a human scale.

18 x 16 cm: The palm of one’s hand.

The fragment of painting.

60 x 50 cm: The portrait.

The projection of the face.

110 x 90 cm: The half bust.

The projection of the half bust.

180 x 160 cm: The body.

The size that can contain the maximum width of my open arms.
