An Interview with Daniel Coves.


Who and where are you from?

I am Daniel Coves. I was born in Valencia, in the eastern coast of Spain.

How you got into this?

Since I was a child I liked to draw and paint, so I guess I always been in this. I studied fine arts in Valencia and also in Milan, Italy. After that I moved to Berlin, where I had an studio and stayed there for 3 years. Right now I am in Madrid working in a Phd in fine arts, and also collaborating with some art galleries in Europe and also in the United States. 

What is your driving force?

Well to me, painting is very connected to my own life. So it’s very possible that my driving force could be my desire to live.

What kind of work you do and why?

For some years I’ve been working in a serie of portraits that doesn’t fit in the regular definition of a portrait. The identity of the sitter is hidden, sometimes I paint the back of the person, sometimes I cover the face with hair. I am very interested in cinema and the cinematographic concept of “offscreen”, so my research in painting consists in that some way. I am very interested in explore the possibilities that this concept can offer -or even has offered- to the pictorial image and how the “hidden” can add power to the painting in visual terms."
