In this series of works, postmodern influences are recognized by simplified forms, lines and sacred geometry. works are done by hand with hundreds of layers of gold leaf. The artist’s goal is to allow the work to age along with the collector, which is why some works will appear unbalanced on the color. Parts of the work will have different tones, burnish spots, or small, soft cracks. Francisco Larios practices painting, open-concept drawing, and the use of software to create two and three-dimensional visual environments. In his imagination, the post-modern condition is achieved in terms that contemporary culture is the starting point for the elaboration of sceneries that manifest the return to sacred references, philosophical themes, and immemorial fabulations. In Larios' work landscape is treated conceptually, sometimes, as space where studies of the dreamlike, the bond between human beings and their surroundings, and the nature of objects develop; in other cases as the practice of graphic representation of mathematical, physical, and musical principles which part from the idea of the horizon as divisive line and as a limit. Larios's production is a poetic, ironic and reflexive exploration of the state of our relationship with faith, will, and destiny. ____________ Francisco Larios (Guaymas, 1960) lives and works in Monterrey, Nuevo León.
