The goal of my work is to captivate and face the emotions that the human being avoids the most, such as fear, sadness, and pain. And to reconcile the being with these, to show the viewer that they are necessary to improve. Through my figurative oil painting, I show death, illness, loneliness, etc. I tell my experiences in Colombia from my childhood to my present, stories of the streets of the capital and towns hit by war around the country. With mostly warm and very unbranching colors, large lumps of paint on the skins, and very transparent layers on the background, often torn from the canvas. A high contrast, highlighting above all the darkness and thus taking the viewer out of his comfort zone to confront him with his fears. And as the only hope to transform those emotions there are small but strong traces of reflections, bursts of white that fall on the character or on the stage that emerges from the darkness.
