Project "stay alive."

A daily art, life, and mental health practice. A Polaroid canvas, a poem or reflection, and a song. The intention: keep creating for a full year.

Reconnecting with a lifelong creative fire and sharing what comes out of it.

The story behind project "stay alive."

Alberto photographing in a concrete flood-control channel under a bridge overpass in afternoon sun — In the field / where the work starts

sincerx self-portrait: a lavender face, brown hair, and pink lips painted over a Polaroid — Self-portrait / sincerx

A colorful painted Polaroid in progress, photographed on a patterned surface beside paint markers — At the table / a look at the process

Alberto playing a drum kit in a blue-lit room — Behind the music / the magic scenes

sixteen seasons

The debut album. Written, composed, and mixed by sincerx (Alberto Alatorre).

Drumsticks at twelve. Bands, backyard shows, bars, warehouses. The band went separate ways; the music never stopped. Now the technomancer builds his own lab, plugins, and instruments.

Lyrics + composition: Human. Alberto’s.
Sounds + performance: Self-produced.
Sound: Genre-blending.

“Rules are for the ruled.” / sincerx

Where the work is going

Art beyond
the frame.

One piece. Nine realities. These are concept studies built from a single painting: still, moving, and held in the hand.

Pattern 01
Radial
Symmetry, repetition, balance.
01.1 / Still
01.2 / Motion study
01.3 / 3D object
Pattern 02
Organic
Fluid forms that keep moving.
02.1 / Still
02.2 / Motion study
02.3 / 3D object
Pattern 03
Fractured
Layered, split, reassembled.
