This fall, I have been hand-selected by RAW Artists Canada to participate in one of their events that took place last week, on Friday November 18 at the beautiful Théâtre Paradoxe in Montreal. RAW Artists Canada has as their mission to serve independent artists with tools, resources, education, and exposure needed to thrive and succeed in our creative careers. In their own words, they are not your average art show, they are loud, colorful, creative, and all about our artists. This was a fantastic experience that gave me the chance to network and make amazing new connections with the community of artists from Montreal and across Canada, and with lots of people that attended this event, including familiar faces and...
Cette année j’ai eu la chance d’être sélectionné par Art Cible pour le programme 2022-2023. Art Cible est une organisation à but non lucratif qui organise des expositions collectives, favorisant les rencontres et les échanges entre artistes et amateurs d’art. Dans ce contexte, j’ai pu participer à ma première exposition collective dans une galerie le 20 octobre dernier. En plus du plaisir d’exposer mon travail, le comité de sélection a choisi mon œuvre ‘’Horizonte’’ pour le montage de l’affiche promotionnel. J’ai partagé cette exposition avec les artistes Amer Rust, Christiane Arbour, Éric Mailloux, Gavlois, Jeremy Paguet, Jibé Laurin, Katie Paglialunga, Maria Isabel Rodriguez, Math Lamarre, et Meghan Galal. Ce fut une très belle expérience enrichissante. L’exposition a eu lieu à...
I will be participating in a Pop-up show in mid-September (the 17th) outside of Riverside, in Saint-Henri, Montreal, right in front of the Lachine Canal. There will be different artists and live music. For this first-time experience in a collective pop-up show, I will show and sale some original works and I have also prepared sixteen new illustrations. These illustrations will be available on limited series of high-quality prints on Arches paper. For the people living or visiting Montreal that day, I hope can enjoy of a beautiful end of summer day by the canal, some drinks and some art. Hope to see you there! Best regards. ____________________________________ Je participe bientôt dans un Pop-up show, le 17 septembre prochain....
In french and in spanish an exhibition is an ''exposition''. As this word says the artist's work is exposed as the artist's person themself as well. So, here I put myself out, hoping my work resonates with some of you. It has been already a month since then and I could not be happier about the experience. My first solo exhibition La línea el cuerpo, took place from the 12th to the 14th of May 2022 in Montreal. I presented acrylic drawings and paintings, in different formats, on paper and wood panels. This body of work has been focussed on expressing the emotion of the being, through the human body. The lines are an essential part of the construction of my drawings,...
The beginning of things. I have always drawn. Since I can remember. I have always been fascinated by the white pages where I could express the images that appear in my mind. With time, the images started not coming from my mind but from a slightly sad and hidden place in a corner of my heart, through a tiny window of my soul. I am also fascinated by the bathers’ series of paintings by the English artist Henry Scott Tuke, painted in the late 1800s and early 1900s. These soft, yet masculine figures of young men, sometimes just sitting on the beach, on rocks, in front of the sea, make me feel and think about a calm and still situation...
