The artist likes to work several times on the same work; he works on his own photos, or others, purchased from antique dealers in his neighborhood; He takes a photo of them again; prints them using an inkjet system on Hahnemühle paper; retouches them again; with paint; with cut paper; leaves; spray; never mind.
Here's the result; until the next intervention perhaps?
The idea of a martyr, representative of deep America, is one of the main axes of Marcos Lopez's work.
“The work of painted photos is a work of self-healing from my fears and apocalyptic fantasies. By putting them on paper, I take them out of my body, for a moment at least. »
Based on the portrait of the martyr made by the photographer in 2003, the artist has produced dozens of reversions of the original work, in different formats. Here is the reproduction of one of these versions made in painting on paper in 2022.
“Man endures the pain of five centuries of colonialism and social injustice. »
