In Juan Delgado's extensive work, the possibilities of the represented image are explored through repetition and reiteration. Delgado reflects on memory and time, takes references from art history, turns his personal experience into broad concepts and seeks the symbolic power of materials and their evocative potential through media such as painting, sculpture, installation and architecture.

It is complex to classify Delgado's work and exploration in a movement or current, as his wide technical and referential diversity is precisely the essence of his work. However, it is clear that it is possible to find in his work a concern for the image and its relationship with the viewer. For Delgado, the image is an extension of the past that alters the present and constitutes the raw material of his exploration, resulting in a work that moves between the limits of the sculptural and the pictorial. Another fundamental element in Delgado's artistic exploration is time. Memories, melancholy, evocation and its effects on memory appear frequently in his series.

The ideas that give origin to his works are diverse: mathematics, literature, music, architecture, personal experiences, natural phenomena and abstract human concerns, and the tension between the present and the absent. All these elements are synthesized in his work, which often results in apparently simple pieces, but which approach materials in a symbolic way, enormously loaded with information.

"It is not possible to intellectualize in art, even if you make every attempt. It is not possible, and that is what for me in essence makes an artist or a work of art profound. I believe that everything is quantum and that art is only given in correspondences."
