The Endangered, Can Art Save Them?
An International Art Exhibition
(November 7 through January 8, 2021)
BIO
I was born in Venezuela and in the 80's I studied Pure Art at the "Cristóbal Rojas" School of Art of Venezuela. Later I developed within the area of Archeology and as an underwater draftsman.
STATEMENT
My work is a protest against the apathy of this humanity that seeks to consume more and waste more. We are not seeing the problem that we cause with so much garbage that we produce. Our world is being destroyed and nobody is doing anything, that is why I decided to recycle the discarded materials into works of art that play with the mind of the viewer who searches within the textures, colors and shades something that seems familiar but does not understand, to create an awareness of such a problem when they discover that everything was made with recycled materials.
