2008 this house was rebuilding , my life was just a dark room ,some rock'n''roll Cd's 2 Lhasa Apsos pups and my cat . September I received a call from a art dealer asking me if i had new paintings to show and let to her Gallery. I said : "yes , lots , I've worked sooooooo much , see you in one month ".
I had nothing , and didn't want to paint . so I spent 10 days sitting on the bed trying to get courage to start to paint . Then I locked myself in the only room of the house with space to work , even so , all ruined and dusty .
For 20 days I just ate brown bread , apple and green tea .

I produced it all on this posted , at the end I was empty , body and soul , exhausted , but satisfied and brand new . Almost all my values were there . I got happy . When the art dealer saw this production said it was far from what of she expected . She wanted something fashion , commercial , some copy of the most obvious New Yorker trend .

Fair , but I have no interest . sorry honey , I am not going to trade my values for a poor agreement with you , an exhibition and a ridiculous share of the profits .

Even so I liked to feel forced to work , I liked this production . After this I just went to paint in March , end of February of 2009 .
And the last painting , yes , the girl's head and green background I did in 2007 , the rest is from 2008 .

CAIO FERN's work is sometimes described as Realist, "though the sheer intensity of his work sets him apart from most contemporary Realist painters. With a highly individualistic style of painting, Caio reveals the raw physical characteristics and inner tensions of his subjects which proposes an intricate set of perspectives of the "self", is apparent in his self-portraits. Though Caio affirms that a self-portrait can only be considered as a visual reflection of himself, "There is no conceptual speech behind it," he believes strongly that the only important thing is the painting itself."

------------------------------------------------------------------

I have worked with self portraits and its many possibilities of getting deeper into the image and/or fragmentation for revealing psychological movements independent of a relation with the space .
