Santiago Picatoste

His work develops between painting and sculpture, giving great importance to color and freedom of strokes within an anarchy in his abstract compositions. Spontaneity and alchemy have always been present in his creative process, which arises from post-painting abstraction in connection with figuration.His work delves into the psychology of form and color and the sensory and aesthetic experience through it.These colorist abstractions his "Atlas" are conceived as metaphorical landscapes in which the artist shows his mastery of color and traditional painting techniques, and the combination of these with industrial materials such as methacrylate, which serves as support for his work and in which he condenses and freezes the movement, the gesture, the form.His painting, deeply suggestive and vibrant, delves its roots in abstract expressionism and is imbued with a new post-pictorial abstraction, with links to Por Art or graffiti.
