About The Artwork
Watch on YouTube: https://youtube.com/watch?v=KpIoU-4AHYA Author: William Marquina Title: Apperception #60. The shriek of nature Series: Confinements Technical: Acrylic on Canvas Dimensions: 230 x 174 cm; (90.55 x 68.50 in) Year: march-2020 Keywords: Nature, Confine, Painting, Dripping, Pandemic, Virus, Cry. Description: This unique situation for the contagion that we live humanity with the new Coronavirus, inspired me to perform this paint through the drip and flexographic techniques, which I have been developing in my previous series "Apperception". When making the drip and then the different flexography, I thought about the vision of a 'shriek', because this semantics related it with the sudden and frightening appearance of being seeing the spread of this virus multiplying throughout the world violently. But this is the shriek of despair of nature because that is the violent way in which she is expressed (in the same way that she expresses with hurricanes, earthquakes, etc., due to climate change) in the face of the alteration and destruction that man has done for egoistic ends and global domination, It is the shriek that occurs by the curve of his throat when he throws it into the air and spread, and it is also the shout that occurs direct when he reaches his guest so he is clearly crying for it. I want to understand with this work, that nature is unique and has a delicate balance, therefore it must be left to it in peace. This painting is signed from behinod, it is not stretched on wooden frame and its shipment is made upwined inside a resistant tube.

William Marquina was born in Mérida, Venezuela. Attracted by the works of great masters such as Picasso and Leonardo, at the age of 11 he participated in an outdoor Sunday painting workshop. After graduating in visual arts from the Universidad de Los Andes, he studied a master's degree in philosophy, followed by an unfinished doctorate, and was a short-term visual arts professor at the same university. From now on, William will pursue his passion for art by experimenting with different themes, techniques, styles and media. Disappointed by the unstable situation in his country, he emigrated to the city of Quito in 2019 where he currently lives and produces his works in the Oskan-huera painting studio, cloistered during the pandemic of 2020 and 2021, he will insist on his series Perceptions William's production has been experimentally versatile and challenges us with series characterized by the desire to search, study and complement the archaic and contemporary. His series are notable: Brillo, Picasso Copy, Matisse Copy, Da Vinci Copy and Aperceptions. In the latter, he highlights us in painting, the subjective complexity in the world of perceptions. In 2023 he exhibited his individual retrospective "Imbrications in painting" in the city of Quito; the International Painting exhibition at Casal Català Quito, 2021 and "Exhibition of Ecuadorian Painting" at the Mayor's Office of Quito, 2019. Other important individuals were: "Cartographies of the Terrestrial and Transterranean", Merida 2012; "Care. Path and Limit", 2007 and "Essences", 2007. Awarded the First Prize of Arts for University Students, in 2001.
