About the Item

This collage work on paper features black and white and hues of blue, red and pink. It is framed in a simple white frame measuring 20.5 by 16 inches. Colombian-born, Atlanta-based artist Esteban Patino creates paintings, collage and sculptural works that explore the multitudes of language creation and perception. Superfluous Beings is a body of work that explores the universal subconscious - imagery and representations of language that have existed in the human psyche for millenia. His collage works are composed of imaginary beings: monsters built from collage elements gathered from his environment, street signage, advertisements and art magazines. These works represent parts of Esteban’s subconscious; invented personas that transform into collective archetypes. The paintings explore rites, rituals and desires, and include imagery of plants, animals, fire, blood, pattern repetitions - symbols that we find timeless and natural. “These works are automatic - layer upon layer upon layer, bringing universal energy that aims to be timeless,” says Esteban. “Like us, these works were born without asking to be born, as if in a cave of shadows.” Esteban studied at the Instituto de Bellas Artes and Universidad Nacional in Medellín, Colombia. His work is in the collections of the High Museum of Art, Fulton County Arts and Culture Center, Microsoft Corporate Collection, among others.
