In Juan Delgado's extensive work, the exploration of the possibilities of the image is primarily achieved through repetition and reiteration. Delgado uses various media such as painting, sculpture, installation, and architecture to reflect on memory and time. His work draws from references to art history, transforms his personal experiences into broad concepts, and seeks the symbolic and evocative power of materials and images.

Classifying Delgado's work within a specific movement or current is challenging due to its wide technical and referential diversity, which is central to his artistic quest. However, it is evident that his work demonstrates a deep concern for the image and its relationship with the viewer. For Delgado, the image not only represents an extension of the past that alters the present but also becomes the raw material of his exploration, creating work that navigates the boundaries between sculpture and painting.

Time is another crucial element in his artistic exploration. His series often address themes such as memories, melancholy, evocation, and their effects on memory. The ideas that inspire his works are varied: mathematics, literature, music, architecture, personal experiences, natural phenomena, and abstract human concerns, in addition to the tension between the present and the absent. All these elements are integrated into his work, which, although it may appear simple at first glance, is rich in information.

As he himself states: “It is not possible to intellectualize art, even though every attempt is made. It is not possible, and this is what essentially makes an artist or a work of art profound. I believe that everything is quantum and that art only exists in correspondences.”
