"…Here is a place we take as our own, extending in all directions without stop or rest, of inconclusive constitution and chaotic order. Container of the visible and invisible, of the tangible and intangible; container of all words without possessing any name… Where what is ours takes place and happens…"
The conscious self thrown into an inexhaustible state of search. • 8 artworks

"…Here is what is ours in the deepest part of ourselves, of tireless and stubborn nature, in succession of itself with its own inertia and momentum. The entrance and the window, the observer and the actor, the inventor, the poet, the healer, and the destroyer… Our fundamental constitution and the primary source."

"From the longing for final unifications and immovable absolutes, from the need for infinite and inexhaustible essences, from the inevitability of the unknowable and uncertainty, from the irreconcilable in the paradoxical and contradictory… The perpetual state of strangeness and wonder, of desire and frustration."

Biography
Born in Bogotá, Colombia, in 1994, Juan Álvarez Bolaños is an artist, thinker, and sometimes poet, whose work seeks to unravel the essence of the human experience through the lens of absurdity. He studied seven semesters of graphic design at the Jorge Tadeo Lozano University and four semesters at the Piloto University of Colombia. He does not hold a formal degree.
Juan David has traveled various paths, from waiting tables and washing dishes in Australia and the United States to working as a draftsman in an engineering company. But it was in the reflective solitude of art that he found his true voice. Deeply inspired by Albert Camus's "The Stranger," which marked the beginning of his intellectual journey seven years ago, the texts of Emil Cioran, Fernando Pessoa, and Charles Bukowski have also influenced his worldview and art. It is mainly through these authors that he has embraced the concept of absurdity, seeing it reflected in every moment of his wakefulness.
His interests include contemporary thinkers who explore the human experience beyond ontological and Dionysian constructs, poetry that authentically evokes the essence of our existence, and images that capture the creativity and potency of the human mind. In his work, Juan David seeks to reveal the latent potential in every human being.
His intention as an artist is to explore and showcase absurdity in such a vivid manner that anyone, regardless of their background or culture, can experience it in an embodied way. The inspiration he found in the absurdity of Camus and Cioran led him to take photographs with new clarity and purpose, focused on capturing that universal, embodied, and powerful feeling. His most recent photographic series, a conjunction of documentary, portraiture, and landscape photography, is a visual testimony to his philosophical exploration.
Juan David aspires for his art to be a window into the absurdity he believes we share, allowing each viewer, regardless of their background or culture, to live and experience it deeply and tangibly. His intention is to unravel the mystery of our existence through works of art.
