About the Item
Making quintessentially contemporary work which references historical tropes and characters, Sam Melendez is a master of the narrative. Men in togas, a mythical bull and a 50s American women come together in a dynamic narrative, perfect as a talking piece for a quiet living space. Regardless, it is sure to be a thoughtful and interesting presence in your home.
About Sam Meléndez:
Sam Meléndez combines his love for all things vintage and bright colors from his home, Puerto Rico, in his work. Evidence of his process is an integral component of his paintings, creating an authentic personal narrative alongside the subject he depicts. For this reason, the grit that charcoal marks leave behind and the notes he makes while sketching the pieces are important to the final compositions. "I love the combination of the raw, black and white of the charcoal and bare canvas contrasted with the super bright colors I work with."
