Favio Handal Zalaquett

Favio Handal is a Bolivian contemporary painter whose work blends emotional expression with vibrant color and symbolic imagery. For the past ten years, he has developed a distinctive visual language characterized by bold strokes, dreamlike compositions, and themes that explore identity, inner strength, and the complexity of human emotion.

Entirely self-taught, Handal’s artistic journey began as a personal exploration that evolved into a professional practice. Through experimentation, constant study, and disciplined practice, he has refined a style that merges figurative elements—such as expressive female portraits and mythological birds—with abstract structures and dynamic color harmonies. His work often incorporates symbolism, including peacocks, suns with wings, and ethereal figures that represent transformation and emotional resilience
