Esteban Patino
'Possible Structure For A New Language #29' large-scale abstract, modern, white

2024

About the Item

This large-scale abstract work features organic and undulating wood-cut shapes. White on white - modern. Colombian-born, Atlanta-based artist Esteban Patino creates paintings, collages, and sculptures that explore the multitudes of language creation and perception. Over a decade ago, Esteban created a collection of forms which represented a new language, a sort of universal symbology. These forms have evolved into a toolset used to create abstractions, not as a language itself, but a representation of language, exploring how humans create meaning by instinct and repetition. Featured in his upcoming show Riddle is a large-scale painting inspired by the kids joke about newspapers - “What is black and white and red (read) all over?” The painting references what our mind’s eye sees when we hear homophones such as red and read. Also, Riddle includes a selection of collages made during Esteban’s recent residency in Berlin. The collages are portraits that are made from Berlin’s street posters and advertisements that are replaced every week. Esteban’s collages are an archeological mash-up of the vibration and rhythm of the city. “I feel my ‘new language’ pieces directly relate to these collage characters who are made from the language of the streets,” says Esteban. Esteban studied at the Instituto de Bellas Artes and Universidad Nacional in Medellín, Colombia. His work is in the collections of the High Museum of Art, Fulton County Arts and Culture Center, Microsoft Corporate Collection, among others.
