About this artwork
Pablo Martínez sails against the current of technological stubbornness by endowing us with increasingly sophisticated artificial memories, which archive our experiences in increasingly precise image albums. This visual heritage of imposed memories makes us similar to that Borgian character, Funes, unable to forget. Remembering everything with the same clarity, he could not enjoy the mental digressions that selective memory provides; He was unaware…
of the unexpected pleasures that the "involuntary memory" sublimated by Proust provides. The play 'Runaway' shows us what appears to be a child on the bank of a river, smelling a flower with his foot.

Pablo Martinez is a promising emerging artist from Spain. His stunning paintings hover between hyper-realism and figuration. Each work is suffused with a particular intimacy, depicting characters that cannot be located within a specific time or place. Characterized by soft colors, Martinez's gentle brushstrokes are subtle without sacrificing realism.
