Description
Mixed Media Collage (thread) on watercolor paper. Ships flat
This artwork is a striking mixed media collage that juxtaposes textual and visual elements with bold precision. The central feature is a monochrome photograph of a man, possibly evoking a mid-20th-century aesthetic. Layered over is an aged text clipping, adding a narrative dimension, and a bold numeral "2" imposes prominence on the composition. Surrounding these are vivid blocks of color, notably a vibrant red square that anchors the composition, while muted earthy tones add visual balance. The inclusion of colorful dots above the figure injects a playful, abstract element, contrasting with the otherwise structured layout. This piece cleverly intertwines elements of nostalgia with modernist influences, creating a dialogue between past and present. Its layered complexity invites viewers to delve deeper into its storytelling potential while maintaining a visually arresting presence.
Presentation
Roberto Fonfría lives and works in Miami, Fl. He was born in Caracas, Venezuela in 1969. Roberto Fonfría creates stories through a random mix of found images, photographs, drawings, and words. He combines these elements and builds layers and textures using acrylics, common objects, and collage. His work explores human behavior and social rules with a critic eye and humor, touching on personal themes such as dreams, fears, and memories. The images come from old magazines, advertising and photo albums collected at thrift stores. By extracting them from their natural context, he reconstructs them by adding references to popular culture as well as common phrases and insights that come from his Venezuelan childhood.
