SURREALISM IN MEXICAN VERSION

Spanish artist Toño Comuñas, based in Mexico, couldn't help but reflect the culture of this country, birthplace of one of the greatest painters of the 20th century, Frida Khalo. Love and death, eroticism and cruelty come together just like in the artist's creation, in a surreal atmosphere that blends archetypes and symbols of the unconscious. The bee, an image of perfect social organization, superior intelligence, and divine wisdom (due to the perfection of its work), of vital principle and soul, is here linked to suffering and tears, a kind of monster as the caption clarifies.

Toño Camuñas

Spanish artist (b. 1967, Valencia), currently residing in Vera Cruz, Mexico and working worldwide. His collaboration with CPS began in 2013, with an artistic residency at the CPS Atelier where he created three lithography and engraving works. In Camuñas' work, "each painting is a cocktail that explodes with an entire duality: pleasure and pain, goodness and evil, attraction-repulsion, high and low culture. In this blend of love, humor, and death, the artist reveals his permeability to a tragicomic sense of Mexican life, the country that has adopted him. (...) Camuñas assumes a provocative attitude with his lysergic humor and his zoomorphic metaphors in favor of wandering and "malditismo". Anna Adell.
