Yes it's true that in the west world, in last two thousand years, senses have suffered all kind of humiliations and confinements, mainly by the so called \"parents of the Church\" and this had its reflection in art. From the Romanticism, nevertheless, the light of the sensorial world - not the artificial light of reason- began to illuminate corners of the mind that until then had remained in darkness. At the beginning of the XX Century the interest to combine the senses and the arts consolidated, an interest woken up at the end of the previous century, specially with the Wagner's \"Gesamtkunstwerk\" concept (total work of art). In my case, this synesthesia not only arises from the love to sensations, but mainly from a perceptual anomaly that luckily or unfortunately have. Neurology defines it as an infrequent upheaval of perception in which the stimulus through one of the senses causes sensation in another simultaneously.

I have always painted what it has made me vibrate, a fantasy, a dream, a philosophical concept, a musical or literary work, or a sound, independently of formal fashions or speeches.

How takes place the synesthesic impression - demonstrated with tests of magnetic resolution- it is still a mystery; and represent what | see is not simple. What appears in my conscience is abstract and fleeting. In addition, a sound or music is defined by time. Nevertheless, the painting is space. How to relate them?, That is the main challenge. It must be created a convention, a language of the space-time.

Einojuhani Rautavaara, the most important Finnish composer after Sibelius, is one of the few that still feel comfortable defending the content and the \"program\" in the art. Three of my works are based on his compositions like \"Angels and Visitations\" inspired as well by a dream and a poem of Rilke. Some other works arise, like mine, from Edgar Allan Poe stories. Like Messiaen, Rautavaara has the ornithological into his themes, recurrent in his work, even introducing sometimes real sounds of birds in the composition. In my case, seven of works exposed in Fantasy and Synesthesia are painted sounds of birds. In general terms, I try to fusion with the sound, the fantasy, the content of the pictorial work.
