Aryz: Vestigio

The Catalan artist's exhibition offers a selection from his current Vestigio series, which follows animals and figures anchored in unspecified natural landscapes that find themselves in liminal situations existing between tradition and unconventionality, history and the future. Parts of limbs, anatomical uncovering of body layers, as well as direct quotations of historical images are the relics that serve as the main compositional tool. Aryz's work combines inspiration from Spanish Cubism, Baroque, Romanticism, Fauvism or historical propaganda posters mixed with the legacy of photography and contemporary figurative tendencies.
