Read moreThe work of Daniel Correa Mejía is direct, sincere and seeks answers in areas far away from figuration and systematic representation of things. His paintings are presented as drawings, or sometimes diagrams and symbols of an indescribable world far away of the written or spoken word. The energy and rhythmic dialogue between line and color makes an active language, in constant motion; An abstract x-ray that seems to have a life behind the canvas; A landscape whose melodies are composed of lines, shapes and colors. His goal is to create, through his spiritual, spontaneous and almost meditative work, a new and very intimate symbolism creative processes through which the artist expresses his experiences and translates into the material world in an abstract language and somehow ' pre-lingual '.
