2022
About the Item
"Man Looking Southeast" is a striking surrealist painting that captures the viewer's imagination with its vivid imagery and bold color contrast. Measuring 36" x 55" inches, this piece features a large, serpentine red form that weaves across the canvas, creating a dynamic sense of movement and transformation.
The central focus is a human-like face adorned with multiple fantastical creatures—each uniquely detailed with vibrant colors and expressive features. The background is divided into two distinct sections: a bright, tranquil turquoise on the left and a deep, mysterious black on the right. This stark contrast heightens the surreal atmosphere of the painting, drawing the viewer into a world where reality and fantasy seamlessly blend.
Crafted using professional Winsor & Newton colors and protected with a UV-resistant glossy varnish, "Metamorphic Creatures: A Surreal Journey" is a testament to the artist's meticulous technique and creative vision. This painting is shipped rolled and carefully protected in a tube, accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. It is an exceptional addition to any collection, perfect for those who appreciate art that challenges the boundaries of the imagination.

Luis was born in Zipaquirá (Colombia), the city where the famous salt cathedral is located, lives and works in Bogotá. He studied painting and art history at the Javeriana and National University of Colombia. His artistic processes are slow, he transforms matter until he creates his own worlds. In his work, he reflects on today's society, addressing some of the contemporary problems: a world hyperconnected to social networks, but with deep loneliness. In his work there is an intersection with the gaze of animals, a call to remember our same condition of equality, respect and care towards them. He was influenced by Native American art, the fantastic realism of the Peruvian painter Armando Villegas, the abstraction and constructive universalism of the Uruguayan artist Joaquín Torres García. Color, textures and fantastic beings make up the worlds that inhabit his painting.
