Rodney Rauth has been influenced by art since childhood. He works in the technological area until 2007, when definitively embraces his artistic career. Academic and figurative art, in addition to the artworks of surrealist, expressionist, impressionist and post-impressionist artists, are his main interests. His early works are figurative, representing a variety of themes through drawing and painting. He explores several techniques, such as oil painting, soft pastels and watercolor. After approximately two years working as a self-taught, he started to attend ateliers and art schools, receiving influence from contemporary art, but never abandoning his interest for figurative art. Initiates partnerships with other artists, not only in the visual arts, but also in other areas as literature. Proceed with the studies based on the works and teachings of important contemporary artists who base their works on figurative art and who combine academicism with contemporary art. The interest in improving techniques and anatomy intensifies, influencing drawing and painting studies in the following years. These characteristics are increasingly present in his works, which are currently developed in oil, charcoal, sanguine and graphite. Over the years he has adopted his own language. The poetics of his works are based mainly on symbolism and introspection. Individual, collective exhibitions and participation in cultural projects are part of his curriculum.
