Through this exploration, the primary symbolism is buried and is resurrected into a new visual narrative. As the artist begins a new painting, his motivation is often totally unconscious and abstract. Other times, he intentionally addresses the struggles of native and minority peoples. Aguirre also finds a creative outlet in Andean performance. In Pre-Inca times art and music were related.
Music is an art in Peruvian tradition.
Aguirre feels that the idea of art and music being separate originates in Greece. It is a Eurocentric concept he does not accept. When not painting, he makes and plays quena flutes and panpipes with his Miami-based group, Inca Spirit. In Peruvian Inca tradition when he plays the bamboo flutes they come back to life. Through both his painting and music, Aguirre hopes to preserve the legacy of his Inca ancestors and to present a contemporary view of indigenous art.
