In this series, Fernando de Ana combines the complex technique of resin with neon elements to create contrast and capture the viewer’s attention, directing the gaze towards certain parts of the artwork. This series is emblematic of his passion for carefully selecting the materials he uses and basing the foundation of his work on the chosen media.
The ANTARES series invites viewers to reflect on their personal relationship with both the artwork and their environment. Though Fernando de Ana’s art can best be described as resin work, the layered arrangement of varied shapes is reminiscent of collaging, and the colored resin spots are similar in appearance to paint splotches, reminding us that there is more to Fernando de Ana’s work than meets the eye.
