Ink, Lines and Cuts

Christian has been always expressing his ideas through drawings. During his architectural studies in Santiago de Chile, Christian began to explore color and composition next to Manuel Gomez Hassan through oil painting. He enjoys experimenting with different techniques. With an architectural background Christian tends to see life in lines, angles and shapes. From traditional oil painting he has expanded into this free flowing, spontaneous geometrical mixed-media works.

He began with pieces of wood, black ink and some tape. In the beginning the work was primarily black and white. The collection you see is the result of years of experimenting with these materials adding geometric patterns. After a few years exploring new possibilities of expressions he expanded his work to installations and old printing techniques such as etching and intaglio. Creating a unique and fascinating style of compositions with lines and textures.
