Aesthetics of the rummage

leonardo reina, Colombia

My journey through diverse artistic disciplines drives me to constant experimentation and research, both in materials and in the meanings they can acquire. Every element I use, regardless of its initial purpose, is transformed into an assemblage that unifies aesthetics and concept, resulting in a work that engages in a dialogue between the functional and the poetic. The knowledge I apply in these constructions does not stem from traditional or academic training, but from curiosity, experience, and an unwavering commitment to boundless learning. My process is intuitive and free, guided by the desire to explore without limitations and to open new expressive paths. This journey of experimentation and discovery has led me to a unique and unknown territory: the skin. In this intimate and collective space, the work comes alive on a pulsating canvas; each stroke of ink becomes a shared expression where human embodiment and art merge in a profound and transformative dialogue.
