“In most cases my works evolve as a product of a spontaneous act. The act of drawing lines, on a surface, which evolve into shapes and forms defined in the spontaneous process of creating them. That is most often while creating art I do not depart from a specific idea or concept I want to address. Rather, it evolves out of the markings made spontaneously.” – René Hugo Arceo"
