In the words of Carlos, "Balancing act is a negative space drawing. The most exciting thing about drawing is figuring out how a shape can carve out another shape. This relates to what I was taught about color; you can’t see color without another color. If you can create a space that’s so confusing that you can’t tell what the shape is and what is the non-shape, that is exciting to me." - Carlos Rosales-Silva
