“My paintings follow the tradition of allegory and didactism of painters like Hieronymus Bosch. I also engage elements from the Surrealist tradition although my images are not automatistic. They have more in common with the surrealism as access to the subconscious or dream world. However, my conscious intentions are to comment on the looming environmental catastrophe that becomes increasingly unavoidable due to the structure of human society, with all its greed and temptation for the soul.” Marcelo Suaznabar
