What does it mean to trust the process?

In ‘NOT YET’, Jan Vallverdú opens his practice to risk, repetition, and radical patience. His works are not driven by themes or narratives, but by a quiet, embodied insistence. They unfold from movement, from habit, from doubt.

In his hands, the canvas is not a surface to cover, but a space to inhabit. He paints not to resolve, but to stay longer with the question. With each return to the studio, the same gestures are repeated — not to perfect them, but to sharpen their meaning.

These paintings don’t impose. They wait.
