About The Artwork
Carnaval Sunday (2016. Graphitoil on primer Japanese board. 58 x 48.8 x 0.7 in) This work is part of an exhibition that I am preparing entitled "The Memory of Pain" and its technique invented by me, is the "Graphitoil" (etymology: graphite and oil). I have wanted to realize these works in black and white due to the topic that I treat: "War and Childhood". Given the current climate of conflict warlike in the world (especially the war in Syria and its repercussions on children) I am doing these works that influenced as a result of having used the technique of the "Lavis". The "Lavis" is a technique of french engraviing of eastern influences, consisting to scratch the plate surface or matrix (usually metal) to later drawing directly on it u sing a brush impregnated with mordant, order to obtain subtle hues. However, I've used this technique of engraviing, but instead of metal plate use the wood board that I print to the Japanese with a base of calcium hydroxide, arabic gum, turkish anise, etc ... so that once outlined the drawing and primed again, stain the drawing with pigmented medium (mainly turpentine rectified more ... secret) and then after a drying prolonged of the stain, draw up for tattooing or record the model on the support.

Spain
Meko (Artist & Plastic Investigator. Freelance) Jesus Meco Castellanos (Quintanar de la Orden. Toledo. Spain 1967) Figure, Concept and Matter. The timelessness and the image matter as the axis of the visual experience determines the artistic production of Meko. Timelessness, image and matter in a work whose path runs from the Concept Art and materic Art between the colorful and informalist commitment and the constant pursuit for reinvention. Meko techniques used pigments mixed with traditional art materials as sand, fabric, straw, rope, etc.., with predominance of collage and assemblage, and a textured close to relief. Use the technical mystification and use of heterogeneous materials, often waste or recycling, mixed with traditional materials art looking for a new language of artistic expression. Apply its mixture of various materials in compositions that take the consistency of faces or walls, which added several distinctive elements. Images that reflect a concern for human problems: disease, death, loneliness, pain and sex. Tone akin to existentialism says the tragic destiny of man, but also claims a freedom, the importance of the individual, his capacity to act against life, ultimately free search of knowledge.
