Armando Garlun

I am a contemporary artist that creates art works, for collector that search unusual pieces, transforming scientific data into fine art.

I like that my work challenge the spectator, so his eyes finds what emerges occult –intentionally or not- from the shapes, colors, approaches, representations, the light or shadows of the abstract forms, and to confront him to its true emotions, feelings or desires. My paintings deal with the notion of perceptions, first impressions and judging appearances fast and the phenomena of discovering the true essence and how we feel, act and think. I incorporate scientific data to disturb from the main topic of the image which the observer has to find. I like millimetric precision in the use of elements, juxtaposition of points (but not for pointillism), lines, use of sheets almost imperceptible to the eyesight, to build and immerses the viewer into a world free of rules but full of colors and expressions. I like to create forms, that this forms create tales, that the tales tell stories, stories of daily life, -my, the observer or the world-, including passion, agony, suffering, strength or will, which could be a chaos or could end in peace.
