This artwork showcases a vibrant triptych of intertwined geometric designs, each painted in varying shades of blue. The left piece features a symmetrical fusion of rounded and angular loops, evoking a sense of fluidity and precision. In the center, the design interlocks four complex, swirling patterns, suggesting endless movement and connectivity. The right piece contrasts with its elongated, T-shaped form, creating a visual balance between verticality and intricacy. The use of blue hues, ranging from deep navy to bright azure, adds depth and dynamism to the compositions. The meticulous brushwork and the interplay of colors emphasize the harmony between structure and spontaneity. This artwork captivates with its modern aesthetic and invites contemplation of the complexities within simplicity.

----------------------------
Almo wonders about his identity, the countries he has lived in, his daily routine and how he creates himself. An outsider who has made the world his home, skin, and citizenship, and through his artwork, he safeguards it in an attempt to explore the mysteries that pass through. Whether they are symbols, dreams or marks of the life of each of us. The artist´s work often features heads, floating bodies, trees, dollar signs, cars, laurel branches, and symbolic elements that denounce the cruelties of our borders. Almo executes his drawings intuitively in these acrylic paintings, aiming for a state of ´semi-trance´ as he himself defines his process.
Almo, Jorge Alberto Morillo Doria, was born in Honduras, spent his childhood in the Phillippines, moved to Italy for his Univesity studies, and now resides in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
