RAÍCES - UNKNOWN PORTRAIT Nº5 Painting

Born in 2000, Valencia, Spain I am a young visual artist that works in acrylic, oil and graffiti. I aim to experience the mix of different media combining them toward distinct bodies of work. I started painting as a fauvist and street artist, I later on focused on abstract art, and I am currently interested in figurativism. The aim of my work is to capture human emotions, to show different perspectives of human faces, most of the time from women. Since I was a kid I was fascinated by the soiling effects from the buildings and, as a matter of fact, I study architecture... It was one of the things that I wanted to show on my paintings, through the constantly present degraded part of the compositions. I think that none of us is flawless and that this is what makes our beauty. Followed by the fact that the backgrounds are inspired by ideas that arise on the street, I wanted them to always maintain that connection with urban art, which is why I always let the graffiti take part of the compositions.
