About the Item
Figurative oil painting of fantastical beings on a colorful and earthy-toned background. Oil painting with multiple layers and textures, vertical on 52" x 32" canvas. I like to explore the intricate relationship between humans and animals. Completed in 2021, it is part of the "entropy" series, which represents a magical connection between animals, humans, and invisible realms, a moment that houses a possible eternity. The painting pays homage to the forgotten and exploited animals that are integral to human existence.
The mixed media technique adds a tactile dimension, inviting the viewer to explore the visual complexity and interactions between the different tones and figures. The painting is protected with a gloss varnish and a UV protection layer to ensure its durability. It will be shipped rolled and carefully packed in a tube, accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
_________________
Luis-Xiua is a Colombian artist who has gained recognition for his innovative technique and deep respect for nature, reflected in each of his works. With a background in contemporary art from the Universidad Javeriana and formal training in painting from the Universidad Nacional de Colombia, Luis-Xiua has developed a distinctive style that combines the abstract and the figurative. His work is inspired by the essence of South America and the principles of Constructive Universalism, offering a unique and evocative vision of the natural and fantastical world. Animals are a constant presence in Luis-Xiua’s art, serving as a reminder of our intrinsic connection with nature. His works often feature human figures, animals, and imaginary beings intertwined in dreamlike and surreal landscapes, creating an atmosphere of mystery and magic. The fusion of abstract and figurative elements in his work invites the viewer to explore multiple interpretations and immerse themselves in fantastical worlds where colors, textures, and creatures coexist harmoniously. Luis-Xiua’s artistic process is characterized by a deliberately slow, layer-by-layer creation, resisting the relentless pace of the contemporary world. This patient and careful methodology allows him to create works of depth and visual richness, offering an aesthetic experience that invites contemplation and reflection, bringing a fresh and evocative perspective to the world of contemporary art.

Luis was born in Zipaquirá (Colombia), the city where the famous salt cathedral is located, lives and works in Bogotá. He studied painting and art history at the Javeriana and National University of Colombia. His artistic processes are slow, he transforms matter until he creates his own worlds. In his work, he reflects on today's society, addressing some of the contemporary problems: a world hyperconnected to social networks, but with deep loneliness. In his work there is an intersection with the gaze of animals, a call to remember our same condition of equality, respect and care towards them. He was influenced by Native American art, the fantastic realism of the Peruvian painter Armando Villegas, the abstraction and constructive universalism of the Uruguayan artist Joaquín Torres García. Color, textures and fantastic beings make up the worlds that inhabit his painting.

Located in Ciudad de México, MX
Enveloped by outstretched paintings, Gonzalo García reveals the ever-present ghosts of our past and present in a delicate swirl of color, light, and flesh. These deeply visceral displays of animals, bodies and mythological creatures come to life in his oil paintings' palette of soft tones. There is a struggle to find balance, a tension between fortitude and fragility, safety and vulnerability, masculinity and femininity, and even life and death. From his canvases to his wallpaper pieces, viewers have immersed in a temporal disruption as García shares an investigation into his relationship to memory, dissecting his familial ties, and the pursuit of identity.
