Avalanche by Felipe Chavez

Felipe Chavez

Felipe Chavez is a contemporary painter, born in Colombia and now working in London, England. With the use of Indian ink, he explores the notion of existence in an empty space- and attempts to demonstrate the purity behind belonging to a tangible world as both a human, and a man.
At a young age, he saw his potential within the arts and decided to study art in college and with a plan to start a degree in architecture, he found himself fascinated by the 3D form but soon realized it was the the beauty of conceptualism and structure that intrigued him, so he shortly decided to withdraw his university application and concentrate his career on the practice of fine art. Self-aught, Felipe draws inspiration from artists such as: Emil Alzamora, Egon Schiele, and Marlene Dumas.
