About The Artwork
Afterlife is a painting with many lives itself, the work underwent many variations, continually reworked over and over again. The many layers were originally done with heavy body acrylic paint. But over time the work now is primarily visible oil paint applied initially in the form of oil sticks on canvas. Using oil sticks the work has lush energetic impasto texture paired with bright contrasting colors and hues. The work dramatically displays with color space and moments in consciousness. Creating multi-dimensional work with many layers of depth. With the artist's signature symbols and figures, a dreamscape is painted, hoping to better understand the simple question of is there an Afterlife.

United States
Marcelo Eli is a Chicago based visual artist whose practice uses painting and drawing to re-contextualize historical narratives in an effort to explore their intersection of myth and history. A constant voyager into the cosmic realm, investigating the mystery in ourselves and the miracle of the image. Obsessed with pushing the boundaries and accessing his highest self, Eli finds this struggle so evident between the object, line, and image. Once embedded in this realm Eli explores the human figure through the lens of Science fiction films, German Expressionism, and Pre-Columbian art to name a few. Drawing on his experience as a Latino artist in Chicago and his aptitude for storytelling, Eli’s works exist at the juncture of personal narrative and burgeoning legends.
