This paper aims to analyze three paintings of the Maskaras series by the Argentinean Alejandro Pasquale through the theoretical perspective of the signs and the syntagmatic chain that allows us to understand how the contemporary artist expresses his feelings and memories in his masked children. Authors such as Oliveira (2005), Barbisan (1995), and Barthes (2004) present the theoretical framework on signs and their meaning processes, while Bachelard (1993), Izquierdo (2002), and Halbwachs (2003) are presented to discuss poetic and memories. The methodologies used are the applied semiotics by Santaella (2005) and the microscopic phenomenology by Bachelard (1993). As a result, I present the poetic composition of the paintings with a sensitive appeal to the artist's personal history with the loss of a nephew and the rescue of his own childhood.Downloads
