Description: In "Silence that chokes," employment means mixed as industrial painting, on the metal with abrasive tools direct drawing and collage of roles on the part of a central map of the nation of Israel and to the sides of this there are reproductions of images of a few drawings by Palestinian children during the year 2012 and of whom I appropriated from an internet source. The issue points to a global feeling of powerlessness not to express the end of the silence of massacres persisting in conflict zones such as the Gaza Strip, in which children are those who for many years have been the first victims of the bombings with a global voice. Through wear and tear on the aluminum, I've drawn a few JAWS with teeth in zigzags to spikes around the map mode, closing that diagonal with reproductions of the drawings by Palestinian children. Strong yellow color that drips of the top represents the degree of danger fatal, latent and constant tension in the region by way of a veil of agony without end trying to gradually cover it all, while towards the end I idealize the souls of the fallen children drawing flocks of migratory birds brilliant.

William Marquina was born in Mérida, Venezuela. Attracted by the works of great masters such as Picasso and Leonardo, at the age of 11 he participated in an outdoor Sunday painting workshop. After graduating in visual arts from the Universidad de Los Andes, he studied a master's degree in philosophy, followed by an unfinished doctorate, and was a short-term visual arts professor at the same university. From now on, William will pursue his passion for art by experimenting with different themes, techniques, styles and media. Disappointed by the unstable situation in his country, he emigrated to the city of Quito in 2019 where he currently lives and produces his works in the Oskan-huera painting studio, cloistered during the pandemic of 2020 and 2021, he will insist on his series Perceptions William's production has been experimentally versatile and challenges us with series characterized by the desire to search, study and complement the archaic and contemporary. His series are notable: Brillo, Picasso Copy, Matisse Copy, Da Vinci Copy and Aperceptions. In the latter, he highlights us in painting, the subjective complexity in the world of perceptions. In 2023 he exhibited his individual retrospective "Imbrications in painting" in the city of Quito; the International Painting exhibition at Casal Català Quito, 2021 and "Exhibition of Ecuadorian Painting" at the Mayor's Office of Quito, 2019. Other important individuals were: "Cartographies of the Terrestrial and Transterranean", Merida 2012; "Care. Path and Limit", 2007 and "Essences", 2007. Awarded the First Prize of Arts for University Students, in 2001.
