Colors have great power. They are evocative. They comfort. Convey. Zanet, through his paintings, look for a way to amplify their ability to communicate positivity, happiness. He studies a system to distill harmony from chaos, to find a meaning, a balance, a compositive effectiveness, despite not having the certainty of fully reaching it. His relationship with painting is truly intimate, his art practice is a way of being in the world, a continuous attempt to understand it.
