Flying Over Painting

Fernando Jaramillo is a contemporary abstract painter based in Colombia. His work explores abstract landscapes as imagined territories, where urban memory, organic structures, and internal perception intersect. Through layered compositions and large-scale formats, Jaramillo constructs visual systems that suggest cities, architectures, and environments without fixed geography. Working primarily with acrylic on canvas, his paintings balance density and openness, inviting contemplation rather than narrative certainty. His practice focuses on the emotional experience of place—how environments are remembered, inhabited, and reimagined over time. Jaramillo’s work is part of the ongoing series Imagined Cartographies, a body of work that positions abstraction as a form of mapping inner and collective landscapes.
