Cintra and Frenetic Diptych is an imposing two-panel work that embodies the artist's obsession with the invisible: the movement of particles, bodily fluids, and the connection between the macrocosm and the microcosm. Against an absolute black background that evokes both the cellular void and the deep space of the universe, Alec Franco unfolds an ecosystem of organic forms, wandering lines, and dense layers of matter. Through mixed media, the two pieces engage in a dialogue with each other through opposing tensions. As a whole, the diptych transcends rational boundaries and draws the viewer into a celluloid and cellular space, posing an existential question: are we isolated individuals or are we part of a single, interconnected organism?
 
The work resists framing in concepts, it overflows the contours and borders of the rational. It is through the presence of color, combined with an abstraction at times with expressionist and other surrealist overtones, where the work expands into various formats and supports (acrylics, oils, pastels, charcoal, asphalt paint, synthetic enamel, on canvas , paper, wood and steel) transiting mixed media materialities that overlap, crushing the apparent figures against heterogeneous backgrounds.The work generates a sensation of fluidity, of liquids, of movement. Sensation of being in a celluloid space, inhabited by atoms, particles, that are in constant movement. This creates the idea of ​​a corporeal space within the body. Of microorganisms, microscopic systems. Generating a sensation of the macro and the micro. Macrocosm and microcosm. I wonder: Are we one or are we all? Are we something alone, individual, or are we connected, interrelated? How is it that such a tiny universe in turn reproduces itself in everyone, therefore becoming an immense massive universe? How is the movement from the smaller universe to the larger universe understood? What gives or maintains that movement?
