Using a subject and technique that he has been cultivating since 1999, Juan José Cambre creates paintings that concentrate on foliage and trees, where the subject is engaged in a play of light and color. They portray the feeling of lying on the ground underneath a big tree on a bright and sunny day, musing at the branches and leaves. The paintings create an almost pixel-like depiction of silhouettes that similarly evoke a blur: like the dots of color you see when you look directly at the sun.
Included in the exhibition, Cambre will present new works on canvas as well as one large installation of 45 prints consisting of various shades of green.
Juan José Cambre lives and works in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
