Curator Radoslav Mehandzhiyski.

At first glance, the works of Francisco Montoya Cazarez may appear “childlike,” with a sense of liberation, sensitivity, and humor of an imagination untouched by the conventions of adult life. However, upon closer examination, we notice how delicate and intricate they are. Executed in a painterly manner, with the confident touch of a creatively aware artist, their visual resonance is perfectly intentional. Achieving such a sense of ease without departing from the realm of the exquisite requires an exceptionally mature understanding of contemporary imagery. It is a sensibility that manages to create without fear of childlike joy yet without attempting to circumvent purely artistic challenges of the day.
