A careless look at Juanan Soria and Ignacio Estudillo’s trajectories could understand them as being parallel. And no doubt it would be right: shared training, cohabitation, stays in the same institutions, classical influences, figurativism, will to beauty, sense indeterminacy... A more attentive look, however — maybe a closer one— would come to a myriad of choices and contingencies generating particularity.

Juanan Soria (1985, ES) with his pencil, giving coexistence to real and fictional elements, getting inspiration from Greek tragedy imagery, compounding critical sceneries, analysing disproportions in our world, recycling the eyes of the past to make up a new gaze .

Ignacio Estudillo (1985, ES) painting, combining tradition, narrative discourses, the BANG! of advertising style, scientific analysis, reacting to his own experiences, creating fictions that are reflections, constructing visual language atlas, playing, exploring.

Looking at one another in continuous influence and discussion, moving away to approach again, approaching to move away again. Now, in 31 square meters, confronted, they offer their dialog of differences and similarities. Two parallels crossing. For art, as life, is made of irregularities.
