Benjamin Garcia

[x-heesy]

Benjamin Garcia is a contemporary Venezuelan artist. He was born in 1986 in Caracas. 🇻🇪

At the age of 19, he began studying design and illustration at the Institute of Design in Caracas, where he specialized in illustration for 2D and 3D animation. He graduated in 2010.

After completing his studies, he worked for several years as an illustrator and editor of film and advertising projects. Then he dedicated himself to professional painting and began exhibiting his works first in Caracas and Milan, and then around the world.

His attention is focused mainly on portraits, painted with a special aesthetic language, an implicit and subtle surrealist approach to the characters. His style is inspired by foggy and obscure images born from the artist's fantasies and dreams.

BENJAMIN GARCIA

You could have called our closet a walk-in closet in the sense that a child’s body could walk in. Mine did, and I called it home. It was comfortable enough, if you were willing to lie. I was.

~ Benjamin Garcia, from The Great Glass Closet in the collection Thrown in the Throat

Language is one of the ways we breach the barrier between one person’s body and another’s. It’s one of the ways we connect one mind with another. It also helps us understand ourselves and make solid what often exists as air. Sometimes, I think of language as cartography for thoughts. But like all maps, no language can represent the world exactly.

Benjamin Garcia, interviewed by Mag Gabbert for Underblong

I lived in a confession booth, listening to my own secrets, making my own sentences.
