Artist Statement:
Aliosha Valle´s paintings are easily recognized thanks to the mix of colors that define galactic, scientific images, depending on one's viewpoint. Aliosha Valle has come up with a metaphoric essay on the mystery of origin, the presence of the sperm and the ovule floating in cosmic space. Aliosha Valle sets out to contrast the minute nature of origin with the immensity of space.
The artist illustrates his dream-líke experiences, starting out from an intimate need that stems from his curiosity regarding genesis. His early inclination to abstract art forms has evolved to a language that tends to learn more towards surrealism, which is where Aliosha Valle looks most at ease.
Movement and color join forces in the composition of works that bear the seal of a job well done. Aliosha Valle presents his work with all due sincerity. It is up to the public to determine whether his work is a accepted of rejected, but definitely no one can feel indifferent to his art.

My opinions on works of art are not those of a spectator art critic or amateur enthusiast. My interest stems from the inner springs that spur the artist to create with a certain style, especially if the work distances itself from nature. Psychological analysis of art, which I have been involved in for over 30 years, is important on this point. When summing up Aliosha Valle's work, I remember the words of Werner Haftmann, director of the Berlin National Gallery, when he said with style the following on modern art: "What we call “style” is just a reflection of the changes in the innermost levels of humanity where the destiny of the individual is not settled, but rather the destiny of entire generations. These changes are brought about in the system of reference represented by the temporary existence of self and the world, the idea and the reality that determine the conscience of reality, and the sensation of reality, or rather the fundaments of reality." In fact Aliosha Valle's work, like many works of modern art, is the expression of the most profound strata of his personality, bound up with experiences of life, love and the spirit.
I have known Aliosha since 1993, and have witnessed the evolution of his work and his inner being; which have enabled me to establish links between his production and his life. That evolution is represented by cosmogony, biogenesis and anthropogenesis, almost successively, until spiritual development has been achieved; it reflects the integration of the instinct of a generation from the biological root, the single-cell attraction: egg and sperm, up to the levels of spiritual love -not just as something sublime- running through the different types of sexual passion, paternal instinct regarding conception and gestation, and the loss of the relation between the offspring and the couple, with a yearning to learn what is fading away. All this stems from dream scenes which portray agglutination, displacement, symbolization, allegories, asyntaxis, the accentuation of expressive features of lines, shapes and colors, the expression of other structural features of the personality together with the tendency towards the abstraction of the essential, the simplification and repetition of shapes in a symbiosis of the abstract and the figurative.
Aliosha Valle's work is undergoing a creative process which helps one to understand his work from within, something that will certainly spark interesting projective phenomena in the spectator.
