I happen to stumble upon an art exhibition yesterday by a Mexican sculptor Jorge Marin. Here's a little info about him: Jorge Marin, was born in Uruapan, Michoacán, Mexico, Mexican sculptor and painter. He has been an active figure in the contemporary art world for the last 25 years. He began to sculpt ceramic in the early 1980s. Bronze has been his preferred material for the last ten years.His work often depicts horses, centaurs, garudas, children, madonnas, acrobats, along with elements such as spheres, masks, arrows, boats and scales. These concepts are consistent with recurring themes such as reflection and balance.
Its more like acrobatic actors wearing masks and wings.
Impossibly balanced sometimes.
This one actually sits on a boat, contemplating on symmetry.
Fallen angels hiding their faces.
All of their movements have emphasis on symmetry, interpreted by their arms, exaggerated by their wings.
Sitting by the window.
This one's over the top.
All of the figures are on the edge of falling and captured, like an abstract interpretation of mysticism using geometry as a pedestal or dreams on themes of religion and the unknown.They maybe real, or they're just acting, pretending to something else. Great work.
