Works by Jesús Torrez
Born and educated on the island, he studied Fine Arts in La Laguna where he learned the various techniques of the trade, but his inspiration flies outside the borders and is reflected in various aesthetic categories.
Since then, more than 2 decades later, he has developed his artistic work in Puerto de La Cruz alone, an attitude that is very marked in his work.
He is an abstract artist in all his magnitude. His work does not come from any memory or real image, but both his paintings and the rest of his graphic work distort reality and transform it into a dream scenario where he captures his vision.
His career in the field of abstract painting brings together various languages in a wide variety of graphics, displayed in his works throughout his artistic career
His work is a mosaic of styles and his artistic production does not make distinctions based on the graphic support: painting on canvas, burlap, cardboard, paper, full of sweeps, stains, dotting without evocations, not even vaguely, to figurative images or recognizable signs. He uses the mixed technique in an irrational and unpredictable way, and the strength of his work comes from his own experiences, especially the most traumatic ones such as loss, but also from the emotions aroused by discovery, anxiety, real and imagined trips and the influence of his environment.
Like many neoplasticists, Jesus Torrez is an excellent fashion designer
