ABOUT THE ARTWORK

In early 2013 I was invited to create five images for a brand new printmaking studio and printmaking concept in Chiang Mai: Fine Art Silkscreens and the gallery would be called JOJOKOBE. As I had already had several of my relief prints and etchings printed at Chiang Mai Art on Paper Studio (C.A.P. Studio), I was among the first to be asked if I would like to contribute some images to get the silkscreen studio started. Given the enormous freedom that a silkscreen print gives the artist, I decided to create prints using pens and ink and even my iPad. These would then be, painstakingly, color separated and printed in individual layers. Some of my images used only a couple colors, while the largest used 24 different colors and took over a month of solid work to print the entire edition of 25. “The World is Bonkers” is my playful take on “reality is stranger than fiction.”

Luna grew up in rural Mexico, the son of a Mexican quantum chaos physicist and an American mother who taught, wrote, edited and translated. Part of his youth was spent in the United States. In California, he studied Cultural Anthropology and Art, specializing in printmaking at UCSC. As an adult, he has lived in Germany, Hungary, and Thailand. Each place has influenced his art and provided inspiration on his journey to find peace in paradox. His work has been sold worldwide in such countries as Thailand, Mexico, USA, Malaysia and Hungary. ARTIST STATEMENT My drawings are abstracted from various aspects of nature. Each of them is a prospective sculptural essence. They are conceived from enhancements, maturities, multiplications and intensification of forms. My main subjects are people because they are a world, a landscape, and an animal all bundled into one. My work is strongly inspired by the Mexican muralists whose murals I grew up seeing as well as by the delicate line-work which characterises Thai and much of Asian art. The American expressionists’ use of color and bold strokes are how my American side shows itself. Interested in becoming a Patron? Click here:
