Extremely sensible
Camargo is an extremely sensible artist, and this is just one of the many abilities hidden behind his humble, warm and friendly personality.
The paintings of this artist are clearly figurative, but we need to make clear that, certain parts of his works resemble some characteristics rather close to abstraction. This fact allows us to appreciate the possible diversity of his work. We do not pretend to appraise the abstract over the figurative, as this would be a lack of professionalism of the author of this text. We only point it out in order to value his plurality.

Conscious of itself
.. He gives us his life turned art, and it detaches from his spirit, conscious of itself, and opens his heart to the one who looks. And this opening occurs without the need to be original, but rather with the pure search for what is unique and long lasting, softly kissing the yearned timeless of his work ...

Watches, scrunitzies, chooses...
Camargo watches, scrutinizes and then chooses. His choice is distinctive, enduring. He then takes
us for a walk to uninhabited landscapes that are solely filled by the light and the magic,
invaded by those daily gods that
Baltasar Porcel referred to/reflected on. In his paintings, colors are the main characters. The
beauty of blue, green, ocrhe and red. Each tonality takes on an unsuspected protagonism, and it
is used to underline the shapes. Camargo is seduced by nature, but he is attached to the streets
and the silent cities as well. These are streets with an effervescent and intense life, windows
with the laundry hanging, balconies open to the outside, buildings that shake off the old
neighborhoods, maybe unable to resist the weight of all their hidden stories….
