Mapa ingrávido is structured as a collection of aphorisms on painting, art and the image in contemporary society; reflections which, in the author¿s words, outline "a weightless archipelago of concepts." Taking emptiness and silence as the basis of completeness, the author says that "painting is a visual fact that is activated in the mind." It is also the site of a rift in the contemporary sensitivity and a contradiction between the different planes of reality. All images, concludes Patiño, "emerge from a field of buried images".
