The central theme present throughout my line of work flows from the organic forms of nature and its constant evolution. The natural evolution of life itself. I identify myself with those who perceive art as the expression of an individual in a specific and unique moment of one’s life.
I would describe my style as “abstract expressionism” moving sometimes into “figurative abstractionism” with an intense and colorful palette, including contrast and textures that invite the spectator to reflect about its form and meaning.
I'm Carlos J. Tirado
