about Christian Villamide
Lugo, 1966
Christian Villamide is a conceptual painter who uses diverse plastic languages, among them, expanded sculpture with materials such as wood, aluminium and the use of "light" as a provocative element of suggestive shadows in which the beauty of the outline and the poetic of our landscape.
The paintings of Villamide establish a dialogue between nature and the industrial landscape, reflecting on the fracture that occurs between the man and the earth, intervening the landscape with neutral textures and colours, forming a great mountain range as an installation or an unusual landscape, altered and inhospitable as an individual piece.
