Luis Alexander Rodríguez (Ie-Xiua)
The Gifts of Patience. Drawing, oil bar, ink and colored pencils

2018

About the Item

Oil bar, Pencil, Petal Flowers, Color and Ink on Paper. The base of this drawing is 120g/m2 Fabriano paper. I use natural dyes from flowers, herbs, leaves, and tree bark as the first drawing process, then on this surface I draw the figures with a pen, finishing with colored pencils and pastel. I believe that one of the highest goals in this life is to know who you really are, my work is part of this process and these images show an inner world that escapes me and shows you a flicker of eternity. The animals present in my work are enigmatic companions and teachers of life who live in the present, unlike us humans trapped in our thoughts. Color is very important to me, I am South American and my ancestral and cultural roots have transmitted it to me. Shipped unframed in envelope with certificate of authenticity. _________________ Luis-Xiua is a Colombian artist who has gained recognition for his innovative technique and deep respect for nature, reflected in each of his works. With a background in contemporary art from the Universidad Javeriana and formal training in painting from the Universidad Nacional de Colombia, Luis-Xiua has developed a distinctive style that combines the abstract and the figurative. His work is inspired by the essence of South America and the principles of Constructive Universalism, offering a unique and evocative vision of the natural and fantastical world. Animals are a constant presence in Luis-Xiua’s art, serving as a reminder of our intrinsic connection with nature. His works often feature human figures, animals, and imaginary beings intertwined in dreamlike and surreal landscapes, creating an atmosphere of mystery and magic. The fusion of abstract and figurative elements in his work invites the viewer to explore multiple interpretations and immerse themselves in fantastical worlds where colors, textures, and creatures coexist harmoniously. Luis-Xiua’s artistic process is characterized by a deliberately slow, layer-by-layer creation, resisting the relentless pace of the contemporary world. This patient and careful methodology allows him to create works of depth and visual richness, offering an aesthetic experience that invites contemplation and reflection, bringing a fresh and evocative perspective to the world of contemporary art.

Watchmaker, Drawing, Inventor, Work on Paper, Ink, Watercolor, Tan, Yellow
By Krzysztof Pastuszka
Located in Riverdale, NY
Watchmaker is an original Ink and Watercolor Pencil drawing on paper. It is 16x24, unframed. Krzysztof Pastuszka is an interdisciplinary artist who spans sculpture, drawing, engineering, and computer design. Much of his work focuses on the complexity and tension in transition/transitioning, giving voice to his experience growing up as a trans kid in the late 90s -2000s. His process consists of idea generation and the testing and creation of prototypes to generate a multitude of parts. He focuses on mechanical movement and the interplay between parts to visualize the intricacies of change and focus on the necessity of each component's ability to cooperate with another and create movement. He uses motion as a way to expose all the micro-operations and mental acrobatics involved in navigating and rejecting the unchanging nature of cisnormativity. He combines his array of skills to envision and compose an elaborate trail of blueprints archiving the hidden and unseen essence of his trans experience--building documentation that didn't exist in his childhood. His current body of work consists of multiple assemblies within one mechanical sculpture...
