The project draws inspiration from the figure of the psychopomp, delving into the plastic and poetic potentialities inherent in the dynamics of a dual context. There are always two presences.

Cañadas presents a series imbued with a distinct literary sensibility, inviting viewers to follow the journeys of a pair often in conflict. By means of medium and large-format paintings rendered on unstretched canvases, the act of creation is envisioned as a mechanism that eschews definitive answers in favor of poetic discoveries. Through the articulation of intermediate spaces, the images allude to a time and place where the boundaries between the playful and the violent, the mythical and the mundane, were indistinct.

The series proposes a system of specular play in which hierarchies dissolve: it is never clear who leads and who follows, who is the guide and who the guided. These dynamics question the sometimes-imperceptible boundary between the imagined and the real. From Virgil and Dante, to Mephistophele and Faust, or Don Quijote and Sancho Panza, these images explore the tension between opposites, revealing how it can foster a space for visions.
