Simbiosis 2 (2023) Картина - Marleon

MARLEON, also known as "El Carnero," is a painter native to Mexico City. At 43 years old, he has dedicated more than half of his life to his passion for painting and drawing, which he has been developing for the past 25 years. While primarily self-taught, he has collaborated with various artists in recent decades.

Reflecting on his work delves into diverse realms due to the wide range of themes his art addresses. Rooted in realism, his style explores various states of human consciousness and fearlessly touches on aspects often marginalized by public opinion. He captures the transcendence of the moment through evolving forms.

MarLeon's creations evoke beliefs in life after death, emphasizing the importance and distinct ethical and aesthetic qualities of transcendence and the immortality of the spirit. He portrays sensual women concealing secrets behind their fragile beauty and portrays life in bustling urban environments, particularly focusing on the loneliness and melancholy of ancient characters left behind amidst the chaos. Additionally, his work delves into the theme of exaggerated faith and its profound, difficult-to-explain ramifications.

His artwork, realistic in nature, reflects social and philosophical issues, undoubtedly imbued with reflective depth.

In 2014, he embarked on his second artistic phase after a decade-long hiatus from canvases. With a background in graphic design, his artistic inclination and prior experience enabled him to find a pictorial medium for expression, leading to participation in competitions and biennials, receiving recognition and exhibitions across various states in Mexico, as well as acceptance into the Artists' Union integrated into the legendary Aztec Salon, where he has shared walls with renowned artists.

In 2023, alongside other artists such as Dan Santino, Krysia Gonzalez, and Daniela Negrete, he co-founded Casa Ennea, a dynamic venue hosting exhibitions and cultural events, serving not only as an artistic production space but also as a cultural meeting point.

The aesthetic proposal of his painting lies not in mimicking the apparent, but in capturing feelings and emotions. "El Carnero's" hyperrealism engages our gaze, placing it in the same circumstances as his characters. He captures the exact moment like a photograph while delving into the depths of the human soul on the same plane.

His style is an anthology of influences, ranging from the great masters of art like Rembrandt to legendary movie poster artists like John Alvin. In terms of auditory influence, Rock and Roll serve as a driving force behind his creations. The bold strokes of his brush dictate the rhythm, akin to a tablature to be read from our own experiences.

Among his artistic influences, he acknowledges Miguel Ángel, Rembrandt, Francisco Goya, David Alfaro Siqueiros, Travist Charest, and Drew Struzan, defining his style as realism.
