Javier Rivas
Spain • 1975
Presentation
I studied at the Agustino Valdeluz school in Madrid and I have a degree and a Master's degree in Fine Arts. I worked for years in the world of design studies until I began my artistic career at the Carrousel du Louvre in 2015, since then I have been intensely dedicated to generating work from my studio in the mountains of Madrid.
I am fascinated by the infinite possibilities of the female body, its curves and mysteries, its hidden places, it is for me a perfect structure. Also the blooming nature and especially the simple and geometric shape of the sunflowers, I feel that I can transform them into anything, in them there is beauty, life and death. In my works the figures always emerge from the darkness with force and are captured in their moment of plenitude. They are organic volumes, powerful, impossible forms, twisted images, natural, symbolic and transcendent life.
