"Unleashing the energy of his muses: Alberto creates works that defy rationality and uniformity.
He claims that he jives with muses. Things in his life, the people he converses with, and the music he listens to are all contained within his gestures, but they cannot be controlled or understood rationally, so they will never be subject to any kind of uniformity. Since gestures are merely the expression of energy, whether it be on a single piece of work or an entire production, he is always following that leap of energy that passes through it."
