Kremer Obregon Cortes

I am Kremer Obregón, a visual artist and educator based in the Colombian Caribbean. My artistic practice spans large-format contemporary drawing and chromatic research, exploring the patience required by the craft and the complexity of human connections. Through series such as *Confluencia*, I reinterpret the strength and tension of classical anatomy by using freehand ballpoint pen drawing as a manifesto of time and persistence in the studio. I seek to create visceral pieces in which coexistence and contrast enhance the identity of the bodies without overshadowing them.
