Armando Mesias (1986) is an artist from Cali, Colombia. He deals through his practice with topics such as the passing of time, memory and identity. Using the intuitive action as a starting point, he explores materials and techniques; ranging from his classical academic training to contemporary explorations in painting. His process is one of continuous transformation, in which spontaneous wear and decay are as important as intentional gesture and control. He currently lives and works in Madrid.
The O Marinheiro series explores abstract forms through a variety of mediums such as ballpoint pen, spray paint and oil.
