ADRIAN ARIAS
I have known Adrian Arias now for more than half a decade, and it is easy for me to say that that I have met few individuals who live so fully as an artist as he. Many practice an artistic craft. There are few who live by it. But there are even fewer who live as if artful craft were a manner of being, permeating all aspects of one’s movement and thought. Adrian Arias is such an artist-person; there is no separation. Poet, videographer, performance artist, innovator of installations, and a talent of pen and brush, Adrian moves between mediums as if tied to a giant kite of imagination. As both friend and colleague, I have watched time and time again the movement of Adrian’s creative imaginative power. It begins with an object, a room, a word, a sound, a fruit, a fillet of sole, and departs, shape-shifting into one transformation upon another. Amidst conversations at a table he will utilize all manner of random objects at hand to forge some kind of momentary creation. He seems inwardly compelled to create and create, no matter where he is.
It is with this intimate knowledge that I view Adrian Arias’s present body of drawings. No, I am not an objective viewer (is anyone?). I see the mind of the artist that I know, in motion. One form morphs into another, and another, always present; the sentiment of some desire lingering. This is Adrian, the artist, his work – an endless and boundless journey of desire. Everything is a testimony to this journey, it’s illusion, it’s dreamlike joy, and its shadowy secrets. Of the drawings, I know many were sketched in the midst of other creative happenings; flamenco classes, tiny concerts in tiny places, sitting in corners, observing and translating the energy of his experience into visual form.
I believe that, in the mind of Adrian Arias, any moment is a potential point of departure, of one world into another. This is what I see in his drawings, so characteristic of his manner of being in the world. I have the impression of a bird caught continually in its first moment of flight.
