Carlos Lagos

Lagos paints in order to convey his instinctive urges to create meaningful paintings. His passion is to invent imagery and bring it to the realm of reality with his works on canvas, board or cardboard.

Painting, he relates his narrative and creative vision of the places that exist in his mind as memories... or, from his imagination.

His thoughts, concepts about life are communicated through his gestural and brash strokes of paint on any given surface. Lagos sets his aesthetics views within the context of imagination and freedom.
​
Be it on a corrugated piece of cardboad, canvas or masonite, his works are composed of paint that intertwined on a single surface results as an expressive, relevant image.
.
He paints instinctively, until the right image appears on his medium of choice. He allows music, and the materials on which he paints to guide and inspire as he composes and creates his paintings. His paintings are impacted by his life experience and travels.
