Madrid Who is a young artist you continued to expand the scope of historical experimentation in painting. His work includes Various techniques-oil, tempera, acrylic, encaustic, recently I've Begun to Complement historical painting with photography. His work ranges from hyperrealism to abstraction, Each piece Showing Attention to composition, color, texture. In His mastery of These VARIED Techniques, one Sees the talent and self-discipline That Have Combined with the lessons of masters Such As Jose Luis Arias and Luis Nishizawa. Madrid's work is diverse Not Just Because of historical themes in novel Tackling Each new series, I dares to depart from self-imposed comfortable Conventional pathways to explore and Reflect upon multiple Interests, Evidence of a Mind That Is lively, That is unquiet.
In the series Wizard Love, principally historical Are feminine nudes charged with erotic power. Openly Despit the sexual themes, I have a spiritual imprint stamps onto the erotism with images and symbols --- in Spiritual Lineage, for example, we see the age-old symbol of the Ying Yang symbols --- Inviting us to Reflect on the harmony of opposites. Madrid 's conception of art as a Means of spiritual communication is clear in pieces as well Such as Warrior Inside "or in the series" Adhimukti. " In "Saint Gilles Croix de Vie", a series of abstracts in Which I shares memories of an excursion, He Keeps Reduced to a palette (red, black, blue, yellow), the main element Almost Becoming the strong and violent textures.
Most Recent In historical series, "Talking Walls, Walls That Come, objects Feel ", Madrid paints and photographs fragments of reality Showing Not Only Where or what a place or an object is, But Also suggesting Where or What It Was and Might Become, Both for Himself and for Others. He plays with perception and the Meaning individual we build from the MOST basic reality, pure and simple from space, I does this by using a visual language at once simple and dynamic. I enter as well iconic elements like the Virgin of Guadalupe, a packing label, or the trademark of a popular cigarette in Mexico, Wings, I leaps from one place to Another --- Oaxaca, Veracruz, Montreal --- a detail taken from Each place Becoming Its Own personal memento token remembrance.

With no trace of self-Censoring, Madrid paints What He Feels, What He Sees, and What I imagine. He feeds on the internal and external world, and, Leaving aside artistic egotism, concentrate on polishing illustrative historical technique. Also I've Studied as a cultural manager and curator, thereby Enriching His life's work. Already I have put down roots for historical Continued solid growth. His talent, united with an iron discipline, shows a strong and steady Maturation in historical work. Madrid is an artist of Definite Commitment Who is poised to make use of Every Opportunity I Might Have to grow.
