VAN GOGH'S HEART Painting

Acrylic on canvas. __ His work is in private collections in America, Europe and Asia. His paintings have the ability to awaken emotions through vivid combinations of color in an abundant world of expressive shapes. The instrumental dimension is hybrid, where it produces a mixed media paint that articulates various techniques like impasto, brush, stains, splashes, stick paint and new media. Dealing with Figuration and Abstraction creating a deep, dialectical and poetic universe that tries to establish new codes and bring our hearts to new horizons. Astorga says, "I am excited to see how Art (painting, music, architecture, etc.) can transform something inside us. Since my childhood I have been attracted to art. In my painting I try to build a vocabulary that feeds on the flow of my consciousness about nature, society and other meditations. The themes are emerging as I work, when I examine the results I find in some of my works importants notions for me, as the tree, the landscape, the river, the flowers, thoughts, emotions. My practice is to emanate on those concerns, from a continuous work with the difficulties in the relationships of color, shape, rhythm and tension. It is a journey, from the white surface until it becomes into movement. Pushing the shapes to non-apparent places. That they communicate other destinations. Where new principles begin but there is soul"
