Philippe Viejo

Exhibited nationally and internationally, Philippe Viejo describes himself as a traveling painter.

Several crossings of the Atlantic by sailboat, a year of family adventure from Tierra del Fuego to Alaska... The artist is interested in the roughness of our world and the riches of encounters.

For more than ten years, he has been developing a personal technique by working with resin and glass to obtain what he calls “his shards of life". A mature and accomplished painting, embodied by material, color, transparency and light.

On permanent exhibition in Mexico City after a year of artistic approach in the heart of this megalopolis, the “ciudad" appears as a filigram on all his works. For Philippe Viejo, the city of Frida Khalo symbolizes humanity very well; it can be wonderful and sometimes confusing.

Paintings of travel, journeys of painting, his paintings tell both the world outside and inside. The one the artist saw.
