Im here, in Mexico, writing again to share my work with you.

This mural was made in Queretaro, Mexico for Board Dripper Festival during september.

Description :

This house was built in 1890 by european architects. Located in Invierno and Primavera streets, the colonial facade is the space of the first photographic studio of Queretaro. Founded in 1948, Mr. Torres was commissioned to portray the high society and social events. Today the business is in charge of his children, and they have suffered the fall of photography because of the technological evolution. This mural searches to resignify the front image of the old house by breaking the principal axes of colonial architecture, their mouldings and order above vertical and horizontal axes. It has been used a big gestural line, in reference of a brushstroke to invade the total space and then a heavy geometrical element among with other gestural traces, to find the balance on the composition.

Hope you like it !! Thanks for all the support :)

Big hug,

Elian

The work was done under “Artmossphere, Biennale of Street Art”, curated by Sabina Chagina.

Located in Meridian House of Culture, Moscow, Russia.

Description:

“Percentage / Composition / Balance”.

This work proposes a necessary dialogue between colors that build it, make a direct relationship with the medium itself, question the empty space and the use of compositional resources.
The color distribution has been generated to have a greater importance than the morphology of the piece, the main element considered is the total area that acts as a support and its quantitative relationship of each color. The composition is based on generating a optical harmonic balance to make it relative to the environment in which the mural is. We can see basic geometry has been used as the circle, the scalene triangle and other allusions to gestural strokes.

Materia Prima is the result of a residency made by Elian and Pastel in Miami during june and july. We can see paintings on canvas and a main installation made in collaboration between both artists, that shows a synthesis of different expressions. The exhibition is in Product 81 Gallery from July 12 to August 8. 2311NW 2nd Ave, Miami, Florida 33127

MATERIA PRIMA by Pastel and Elian – Argentine-based artists Pastel and Elian explore the true meaning of collaboration by combining their individual aesthetics in Materia Prima.  By definition, “materia prima” are raw elements taken from nature that are later transformed into consumer goods.

In the exhibition, Pastel uses symbols to explore and communicate seldom told stories about war and socio-political differences that to this day remain relevant in new geographical areas.
Working with symbols like arrowheads and flore, the piers begin a dialogue about the nature of man and his surroundings. The existential, real, pure and tragic.

Meanwhile, Elian tells another story: one in which the geometric properties of art and the use of black, white and empty space give new meaning to the background of each piece.  Using primary colors, Elian’s analysis of form prompts the viewer to think rather than feel.

Thank you for the support and keep talking.
