  DANIEL VERBIS (León, 1968). "El corazón de la semilla (The heart of the seed), 2007. Collage on wood. Signed, dated and titled on the back. Measurements: 130 x 109 cm. A graduate in Fine Arts from the University of Salamanca (1986-1991), his work is marked by experimentation with new materials, resins, plasticine, buttons, threads and wool, ropes, plastic canvas, etc., materials that had traditionally been kept outside the field of pictorial techniques. Unorthodox in his use of materials, he combines installations with painting, integrating both in a playful game in which priority is given to questions and interrogations. For Daniel Verbis's artistic work, the old differences and antagonisms between painting and sculpture are meaningless. His images are open, and one can guess the process, sometimes unfinished, which gives way to the spectator to take up the reading again in another work where the same motif is resolved with a different technique. It is common in his works for the canvas frame to be an important part of the final meaning of the image. In this way, Daniel Verbis's works become visual clues for the viewer to interpret the mechanisms of artistic meaning. In his latest works, aluminium foil and drawing take centre stage, in a projection of coloured circles and in various drawings made with oils, pens and threads, his work in terms of motifs is not very anecdotal, focusing on essentialist aspects of forms or assemblages of clean forms with hardly any ornamentation. It is an example of the transgression of boundaries between artistic genres.
