Felipe Chavez
Felipe Chavez is a figurative contemporary painter, born in Colombia and now working in London, England.
With the use of Indian ink and water, he explores the notion of existence in an empty space- and attempts to demonstrate the purity behind belonging to a tangible world as both a human and a man.
In the last few years he has explored his medium and is constantly learning more about the beauty of its textures.
He considers Ink and the way it reacts, mysteriously hollow, forcing the viewer to look around the page and submerse themselves into its forms.
As a consequence, his recent collection of works has become the perfect hosts to portray the subtleness of the ink and the rawness of Felipe’s aesthetic.
Each subject in this series shows an intentional darkness contrasted with its figure that engages and haunts the audience.
