Mario Albarracin

Self-taught artist, born in Los Ralos, a town in the east of Tucumán, Argentina. He began his artistic career through digital art, mixing traditional drawing with technology, starting from the thought of using drawing as a basic tool of the creative act and drawing like children....without boundaries, with no more inspiration than freedom itself.

"Drawn emotions" have the spiritual burden of an inner journey, of a creative flight of an artist in the search of his own universe: his artistic homeland. Many of the works in this exhibition were created in different places, for example: in a bus stop, in a folk-land patio(yard) or in plain streets of the city. Creations that take place just in seconds, true emotions that are drawn in small papers carried in pockets..... images, sounds, a strange alchemy of sensations looking for a form to materialize.

Even though his training as an artist has taken him many years of search and sacrifices, we can say that we witness the birth of an artist, the beginning of a flight, we will never know its height...... unless he spreads his wings out.
