Yelitza Diaz
Sitting on Red, Original Painting

2022

About the Item

Artist Comments
Two figures sit and wait for their companion climbing the ledge of a red rectangular structure. Artist Yelitza Diaz seeks to question the basic idea of minimalism by adding the human form to the composition. An experimental concept representing man's journey of spirituality and elevation of being. The piece elicits the viewer to find meaning from their own experiences.


About the Artist
Born in Venezuela, Yelitza Diaz;s life has been wrapped in the arts since childhood. She founded a gallery with her husband, who is also an artist, and was successful for many years until the crime and corruption in the local government became unbearable. They now live in South Carolina, where she makes art that explores human existentialism and the political and social developments of her native country. Her sculptures are made with ceramic techniques using a minimalist contemporary style. Fun fact: Yelitza designed the town seal for her native Municipio Falc;n in Venezuela.

  • Here Today, Gone Tomorrow, Original Painting
    By Darlene McElroy
    Located in San Francisco, CA

    Artist Comments
    Artist Darlene McElroy displays a contemporary portrait of a woman with her hair flowing in the wind. Bold patterns in vibrant colors establish her dynamic silhouette. "The winds of life moved her to new places and new experiences full of secrets," reveals Darlene. The unconventional materials create a sculptural and dimensional aspect.


    About the Artist
    Darlene McElroy sees creating art as similar to reading Turkish coffee grounds. A story becomes revealed as one looks at the surface, texture and color. Her works use a variety of materials ranging from acrylic paints to photo transfers and collage. She currently lives in New Mexico and has been greatly influenced by the work of Robert Rauschenberg. She encourages viewers to search for their narrative interpretation when viewing a work.

  • Small Beings Sitting on Logs. Set of 3, Original Painting
    Located in San Francisco, CA

    Artist Comments
    Unifying minimalist and modern styles, artist Yelitza Diaz builds a figurative sculpture of three figures settled on geometric pedestals. She manipulates the wooden elements to give it the roughness and apparent strength of metal. The first being climbs the block as the remaining two await sitting down. Yelitza's conceptual piece represents the human journey of spirituality and elevation of being.
