About the Artist

Ely Phenix

Spain

I was born premature.
I was told that at birth the tissues of my body were not yet complete. 
Maybe that’s why I’ve always felt like an alien.

And this may be the reason why I continually keep searching for feeling myself in the womb 
submerged in the amniotic fluid.

For 9 months we all dive in our mother’s amniotic fluid. 

And did you know that liquid is chemically almost identical to ocean water?

That’s why painting underwater takes me to a state of connection and relaxation similar to the one a baby can feel inside his mother.

After all, 80% of our body is water, so the connection among my body, the sea and painting is very different from the one I feel painting in my studio.

Today we live in an absolute disconnection from nature, and are impregnated with the urban and digital.

So with my work I want to make people aware of the importance of connecting with nature, 
to feel the sea through a new and different experience.

The importance of being one with the ocean.
