Nerea Caos Paintings

Spanish, b. 1993
Nerea Sánchez Castro, born in Ferrol, Galicia in 1993, an art student since high school, with constant private training in Art and Performance, studies Early Childhood Education and heads to Barcelona at the age of 21, where she studies Psychoanalysis at the School of Psychoanalysis of Barcelona, ​​a subject that always caught his attention and that he will later make of it his profession. He lives in Sitges, a place that inspires him when it comes to creating, thanks to the landscapes rich in colors, shapes, nature, as well as a unique light that the Mediterranean gives off, not without forgetting the cosmopolitan social environment, with a lot of fashion and art present. completely innovative in the place. Nerea continues with her training in Gestalt Theater Therapy where she is currently participating in Barcelona. His continuous passion for the unconscious and art has led him to merge the two disciplines into one and create works framed in the artistic current of abstract expressionism, which allows him to experiment with his conscious emotions and his unconscious sensations. He likes to compose from the dissociated forms of the human body and the mixture of textures and colors that play with contrast. “I live by creating and representing characters that facilitate the staging of everyday life. I work with people, with whom I develop my maximum potential, we find together the originality of each one, the reason to give light and self-awareness, while new works emerge in my moments of solitude, which my unconscious has saved to come out at unexpected moments. … I represent works that connect me with childhood and at the same time with the present, and that without a doubt, my personality finds its voice through there; Psychoanalysis, painting and performance complete me, I give the world my best part”. Her signature is CAOS, by Sánchez-Castro, Nerea CAOS, since as she herself says “The best ideas emerge from CHAOS, but only when you manage to get the apex of exquisiteness out of it, it is good to make mistakes, try and experiment, only then will different and original things emerge”.

Neo Expressionist Psychological Face Fragment Moon Oil Canvas Painting Abstract

By Nerea Caos

Located in Sitges, Barcelona

Neo-Expressionist Psychological Face Fragment Moon Portrait Oil Painting Oil on canvas Height: 20 cm (7.88 in) Width: 20 cm (7.88 in) Unframed Signed verso Executed in 2023 Excellent condition Original artwork A striking neo-expressionist psychological portrait fragment exploring the hidden “dark side of the moon” of the human face through gesture, texture, and chromatic tension. Built on a deep nocturnal surface activated by flashes of electric pink, violet, and acid yellow, the composition reveals a face emerging from abstraction like a memory surfacing through shadow. The image oscillates between presence and disappearance, inviting the viewer to participate in the act of perception. The work belongs to a contemporary line of European expressive painting rooted in the legacy of post-war psychological figuration while remaining visually aligned with current collectors’ interest in intimate scale emotional abstraction. Despite its compact format, the painting delivers a strong wall presence and works especially well in curated group hangings, modern interiors, and collector-driven salon compositions. An excellent example of emerging Spanish neo-expressionist painting connected to themes of subconscious imagery, identity fragmentation, and emotional surface mapping. ARTIST BIO Nerea Caos (born 1993) is a Spanish contemporary painter working between Barcelona and Sitges. Her practice merges psychoanalytic research, performance sensitivity, and gestural painting into a personal visual language situated within contemporary abstract expressionism. Her work explores subconscious structures through fragmented body imagery, layered textures, and chromatic contrasts that function as emotional signals rather than descriptive elements. Living near the Mediterranean light environment that historically influenced generations of modern painters, Caos develops a distinctive intimate-scale psychological abstraction that resonates with current European expressive painting trends. This work relates to the expressive portrait fragment tradition seen in: Jean-Michel Basquiat Antonio Saura Georg Baselitz Marlene Dumas Jean Dubuffet Cy Twombly (late figural traces) Collectors interested in contemporary psychological figuration and neo-expressionist portrait abstraction will immediately recognize its visual lineage. neo expressionist portrait psychological face painting abstract face painting...

Mixed Media Large Pop Art Painting Drawing Brian Kenny NYC Street Art 2015

Located in Surfside, FL

Brian Kenny, (German-American, 1982-) MIxed Media Painting with Drawing, Oil or Acrylic on Canvas. Hand signed On Verso and Dated 2015, NYC Dimensions: Sight- 30" x 24", Frame- 36" x 30" Brian Kenny (born 1982, Heidelberg, Germany) is a NYC-based American multidisciplinary artist exhibited in galleries, museums, theaters and alternative venues in the US, Canada, Russia, Israel and across Europe. In 2004 Brian began an ongoing collaboration with artist Slava Mogutin as SUPERM, and in 2016 with writer Rich Juzwiak as BOYFRIEND HOUSE. Using an array of mediums including drawing, painting, sculpture, textile, video and performance, Brian’s artwork is bright and vividly expressionistic; often autobiographical and reflective of his current states of mind which include themes of his queer identity, shifting societal perceptions about gender, sexuality and politics, urban living and free-associative wanderings of thought and creative experimentation. New York-based artist Brian Kenny’s work is a visually striking exploration of gender, sexuality, and politics in contemporary North America. Known for his experimental and expressionistic practice, Brian mixes mediums such as painting, illustration, collage, sculpture, and textiles – oftentimes all at once. Brian’s foundation in drawing is evident across his portfolio, with nearly every piece incorporating some signature scribblings from the artist. He has experimented with drawing, collage, photography, performance and, more recently, painting. “All the other mediums I’m exploring like, painting, textile art, and animation all branch out from drawing,” he explains. This focus is what makes Brian’s vast collection of work all feel so cohesive. "Both of my parents were in the US military and we moved around a lot in the US. But most of the places I lived were rural, far from big cities and art museums, so I had no idea who Andy Warhol, Mark Rothko, Chuck Close, David Hockney or Damien Hirst were. The few small art museums I visited as a child were full of old-school oil paintings; all life-like portraits, rural landscapes and historical recreations. It wasn’t until I met Slava Mogutin and moved to New York that I began to meet artists, see exhibitions at art galleries of living artists near my age, and tour lot of contemporary art museums like MoMA and begin learning about contemporary art history". Brian says. “I’m definitely not a minimalist and lean toward more narrative and figurative artwork than abstraction or decoration”. Minimalist, he is not: Brian’s work pops with vibrant colours, characters and shapes, evoking a Warholian play on pop art culture. Kenny’s signature line drawing style is reminiscent of Keith Haring and LA Ortiz and evokes comparisons to early Jean Michel Basquiat. Brian's commercial and fashion work includes art and design commissions and collaborations with Onitsuka Tiger (Japan...
