I painted this artwork after having a dream. In my dream, I was standing on top of a very high-rise building. I walked towards the ledge and felt a vacuum in my stomach produced by the vertigo of looking down. I was really afraid. I walked back towards the exit door. That door provided me security by allowing me inside the building through a staircase. Instead, I stopped walking in the middle of my eternal panic and moonwalk. Suddenly it was gone! all the fear was no longer there! I said to myself, this is a dream. nothing is going to happen. enjoy, you're not afraid anymore. next thing my guts were invaded with rage, courage, and strength. I ran. literally ran towards the leap and then I jumped as high and as far as I could. The surprise is that I made the non-gravity second, last for what seemed 3 minutes. then an invisible membrane formed around me. I adopted a fetus posture, and the descent was very soft. like a soap bubble. while I was descending I saw other people floating or descending as well. I remember looking through the windows (of the buildings all around me) and watching how people lived their lives. I started to think about appreciation of time and getting rid of all the people and things that we don't need in our journey. As soon as I touched the ground, my "bubble" popped and I woke to this reality. I did a quick sketch in order to remember as much as I can. d a n g u z m a n

Mexico
Architect, designer, musician, and painter, Dan is a Multidisciplinary artist who grew up surrounded by art. Since his childhood, the great master's family books made him fall in love with artistic creation. Inspired by rebel artists toward aesthetic dogma, Mexican and international painters marked his criteria. Since then, he is compromised to create art from his guts without any mental barrier or hesitation. Compelling paintings, Intriguing paintings, screaming paintings. Dan submerges the spectator into the most profound areas of his psyche. His canvasses tell stories that surround human nature. The urban landscape is not limited to acting as a sterile backstage but performs and plays a part as another character. His Concept as well as his graphic language it’s clearly influenced by his architectural knowledge. Dan’s work reminds surreal expressionism. One can find cityscapes as a "leitmotiv" in his work, Dan deforms de ideal accuracy, precision, and perfection that architecture tries to achieve, by comparing reality with the chaotic order that nature really delivers. He "fixes" his buildings straight and artificial lines by tracing free hand and obtaining a sketchy and imprecise trace that tries to copy nature in its purest form. The cities that he paints evolve into a poetic rhyme over utopic architecture. Composed of artificial and natural energy, his graphic dialogue presents non-static scenes. The collective spirit in his paintings speaks about a constant fight against, conformism and the full understanding of oneself as a mind, spirit, and body. His work is filled with elements that are related to the final concept, building micro-narrative stories on each painting.
