Estartus
Biography
Estartús began painting as soon as can be expected from someone who considers our lives and the act of doing it inextricably linked. He always enjoyed success in both of his parallel careers, one in the medical filed and his artistic one. Earlier on his art shifted from realistic to abstract, always basing the work on the treatment of materials, textures, colors and shapes and beauty as the common thread, then evolved and both figuration and abstraction coexist.
Death, the unknown, the soul, mystery, and anxiety about the speed at which our existence can end are themes that run throughout his artwork. He is one of the best representatives of contemporary painting, an existentialist capable of conveying the desire to seek the meaning of everything with his art and of reinvention with each series he creates.
Dynamic, yet into psychoanalysis and introspection, he fully immerses himself in the creative process and uses materials as varied as oil and acrylic paint, grease pencils, wax crayons, graphite and Chinese ink, burlap, wood, synthetic fibers, tar, vinyl, corduroy, sand or metal on paper, cardboard, canvas, wood and metal plates. His works of art have been selected and curated by exhibitors around the globe.
