About the Item
Benjamin Garcia's (CO based) "They Would Cease to Exist Without Us" is an original, handmade oil painting that depicts two women leaning together with red and translucent patterning obscuring their forms and creating a sense of ambiguity.
Artist Biography:
Benjamin Garcia was born in 1986 in the city of Caracas, Venezuela. At age 19 he decides to study design and illustration at the Instituto de diseno de Caracas, graduating in 2010. His first influences came from comic artists like Moebius and Bill Sienkiewicz. Little by little he made the transition from illustrating for animation to painting when he discovered the work of artists such as Lucian Freud, Jenny Saville and Kent Williams. He focus mostly on portraits with an aesthetic language that is both dark and subtly surreal with an approach to his subjects that is often subjective and intense. He has participated in various collective exhibitions to the date.

Hide and Seek (portrait) - abstract art , made in black and white, blue colors
By Daria Kotlyarova
Located in Fort Lee, NJ
Hide and Seek (portrait) - abstract art , made in black and white, blue colors.
The game of hide and seek. The leitmotif of the repeatability of the plot causes fear, fear is very romantic, this is the main motive of surrealism. Intrusive repeat of the plot. No fate. There is a choice. If everything is predetermined, there is no one to judge.
In the modern world, the artist is a peculiar explorer of the time that he lives In. The “main character” of this world is a man whose gaze is turned inward. This view projects its existential reality, where the figurative language of painting is a method of transmitting abstract images of the experiences of the main characters and the time in which they exist on an equal footing with the viewer. Pictures of Daria Kotlyarova have no plot, at first glance, they have no action, but there is a moment. The moment before the second “before” ... and the viewer stops and freezes in tension, this is almost a psychological “cinema reception” that refers us to David Hockney...
