Description of the Artwork “Utopia”
This work, made in oil and acrylic with textures on canvas, is an interpretation of a symbiosis or synergy between the masculine and the feminine. The black horse represents strength, the masculine, the blue horse, along with the naked body of the woman, represents femininity. The black horse has a representation like a window, indicating the need to see inside oneself
Artwork in the interior
José Luis Montes, Mexico
Concern for nature and the space we inhabit has been a constant on a personal level and as such has been reflected in many of my works over time. I am currently focusing my work on women; the woman as a symbol of strength and tenacity and also as a guardian and connoisseur of the cycles of nature and I am painting her along with floral and animal elements that show her coexisting with nature. I use this, on the one hand, to draw attention to the fact that there is less and less nature to interact with, and on the other hand, as a reminder that we have to listen to the rest of the beings in nature, because we are not independent. from it and we cannot sustain ourselves outside of it, we need to understand that we are one and the same and that is what I intend to convey with my work, that people stop a little to think about how we are destroying the habitat of the macaws or how we are taking our diet towards the absurd, for example. I also like to use everyday elements to form and assemble the work as an allegory, guiding the observer into the interior of the painting, so that from there they themselves can discover their interpretation or can start a conversation with the work.
