Left on War

"The violence don't finish at the end of a war, the consequences will follow the heritage of those violent actions, in are social behavior and way of think." As does all of my work, this collection reflects the violent situation in Colombia. Each piece reproduces feelings of a social bleeding, tireless armed conflict, and a society pillaged by social intolerance and a war on drugs. As a whole, my work acknowledges the situation of Colombia, exemplifying a denouncement and rejection of the violence in my country. In my paintings, strong contrasts of color convey the extreme emotions provoked by Colombia’s plight, while elements of sensibility and eroticism are portrayed by abstracts of the human figure. Attached to all aspects of my paintings and sculpture is an encompassing reflection of political and social introspect.
