Camilo Manrique

I'm an artist from Bogotá, Colombia. I like to express what I feel about the things that shook me making many frames, can be good feelings or not so good. I love to draw with fountine pen on paper, see the contrast between the black ink on the white of my papers, sometimes I like to use crayons on my pieces, with my left side, my atrophied side, my honest side; or sometimes dream with other world, other architecture, buildings made with insect legs, It is a feeling that I was very marked after seeing the work of H.R. Giger.
when I do sculptures i like to let be the material in some parts of the piece, to show the nature of the material, and do the things that I feel right this moment.
And I play guitar too! it is my other passion, to make and feel the sounds, and make rythms only with my fingers and that great instrument, i love it!!
