Espinete , jovial y popular personaje asexual del Barrio Sésamo español de los años 80, acabó cubierto de una sustancia mortal y cancerígena(amianto) ; metáfora perfecta para representar la decadencia de una generación perdida , así lo expreso en la obra con la mitad del cuerpo del “caballero de la mano en el pecho”de El Greco, que representaba el símbolo del caballero español del Renacimiento. FALSA o FARSA, era el título original para esta obra, luego jugué con la frase “fake you”

He was born in Malaga(Spain), the eldest of 3 children, both of his parents are teachers. From the very beginning, his interest in art was evident. Any piece of paper that ended up in his hands was transformed into a colourful, expressive drawing. As a schoolboy he put all his emotions into his paintings and quickly exceeded expectations in art classes. When he was ten his parents enrolled him in a private art school in Malaga where he studied until the age of twenty one. These eleven years of professional training developed his skills and prepared him for a future artistic career. During this period he regularly had commissions, painting landscapes, marine, nature, and still life art. However at the same time he studied and developed his own personal artistic style, characterised by a concise and colourful figurative art,as positivity started to become the focal point of his work.. At seventeen, after graduating from High School, he made a surprising choice, deciding to study Industrial Engineering at Malaga University. His family supported this decision, although they felt his future lay in art, which would prove to be correct as time passed. After obtaining his degree he worked for eight years as an Industrial Engineer in several areas such as quality certification, metallic structures and environments, always trying to fit in his main interest, painting. Despite his job as an engineer there still was something missing and deep inside he knew he had to enjoy what he love the most, so he gave up engineering and he came to live in London whose rainy and grey sky combined with its diversity are a great inspiration to him. Selected as one of the top artists by the Huffington Post at the Untitled Artists Fair in London 2014 : "Antonio Pozo, a painter from Malaga based in London, exhibited exquisitely crafted portraits. Strongly influenced by German Expressionism and Soft Cubism, his works dissects the human soul with great insight, skill and originality. The sitter starts a dialogue that it is constantly fresh and direct. A rising star to closely be watched" .html
