The Multiple Shapes of Abstract Thinking: Prints by Jesus Perea

July 27, 2018 by Mariabruna Fabrizi 2 Comments

Jesùs Perea is a Spanish visual artist with a background in graphic design and illustration and extensive production of abstract prints and frequent excursions in the figurative realm.

His work is an exploration of different compositions ranging from intersecting and rotating geometric forms to colorful quasi-architectural structures.
A parallel research is made in graphic techniques: from digitally created imagery to mixed media collages.

While relying on digital techniques, Perea’s works do not seem to indulge in the promotion of digital aesthetics. Contrarily, with their bold associations of colors, patterns, and geometric structures, his abstract creations reveal an uncommon ability to evoke non-figurative artistic movements of the past: from early twentieth-century avant-garde to minimalism, while avoiding nostalgic overtones.
