Aaron Rodriguez

I was born in 1986 in the Canary Islands, Spain, where the intensity of nature, light, and color sparked my curiosity and creativity from an early age. I am currently based in the United States, where I continue to develop my work as an abstract expressionist artist.

My artistic path was deeply influenced by my grandfather, Mario Rodriguez, who introduced me to art during my childhood and encouraged creative freedom and exploration. His guidance remains a lasting presence in my work.

As an abstract expressionist, I focus on emotion, gesture, and the expressive potential of color and texture. My work is intuitive and process-driven, reflecting personal experiences, inner states, and movement rather than literal representation.

Experimentation plays a central role in my practice. I work with a variety of materials and techniques, allowing spontaneity and layered surfaces to shape each piece. Through my work, I aim to create a direct emotional connection with the viewer.
