Colombian artist Alejandro Naranjo, born in 1972, masterfully blends abstraction and figurative elements in his expressionist paintings. Inspired by the ephemeral nature of life and the landscapes we inhabit, Naranjo's artwork delves into lyrical storytelling, evoking a dialogue that transcends verbal language. His pieces invite viewers to explore the interplay of textures, lines, and vibrant colors, sparking personal interpretations beyond the immediately obvious.
Naranjo's artistic journey began with studies at the Metropolitan Technological Institute in Medellín, culminating in a Bachelor's Degree in Fine Arts and Fine Arts Education from the University of Antioquia. His early work demonstrated a keen interest in capturing fleeting moments and sensations, drawing from memory to create new and subjective scenes. This foundation laid the groundwork for his later explorations of abstract and figurative art.
Throughout his 20-year career, Naranjo has garnered recognition for his unique artistic voice. In 2008, he received the third prize in the XVI Departmental Hall of Arts for art teachers in Medellín. His international presence is evident through participation in prestigious events like the Hong Kong festival in 2005 and the Gwanghwamun International Art Festival in South Korea in 2011.
