Camil Giralt Peiro Spain, 1965

"Painting is a need that I had to cover in order to give meaning to my life. It is my daily challenge, my inner journey, of knowledge, of introspection."
The work of Catalan artist Camil Giralt Peiro reflects his need for inner balance, which is explained by concepts such as calm, silence and distance from everything and everyone. In his paintings, this is shown through the balance between form, space and colour, and they are the result of a review of his own work and the constant search for new means of expression.
 
He uses few elements, with a limited colour range, and works with different techniques that he has developed over the years, using inks and paints on quartz bases, or handmade paper, to achieve different results and textures with which he feels a connection.
