DAVID LEÓN

Santa Rosa de Cabal, Colombia, 1982.


Illustrator, visual communicator and artist of the National School of cartoon and visual communication in Bogotá, Colombia, and of the Departmental Institute of Fine Arts in Cali, Colombia.

He has developed and participated in initiatives and exhibitions in unconventional places at regional and national level.
 

Currently he is part of the art collective "Circular Presents" with which he has made several exhibitions being one of its founding members.
His work is based on a series of visual metaphors from which infinite paths of sense of reality are open. In the search for a confrontation between man and his life, the artist creates beautiful analogies between the material of choice and human nature: the ruin of progress represented in the brittle chalk material, the absurdity of understanding the allegorical mining expeditions and its whole universe inside a flower pot, hardness and human frailty represented by the clay and plaster.
