Description from the seller
Rare work by Javier León Pérez, Its surrounden by acryl glass for safety. The case is a little damaged.
In his paintings, drawings and sculptural paper works, the almost obsessive detailed process, and eternal repetition of small elements that cover the surface, act as a mantra, a sacred formula and deeply personal ritual for the artist. In many of his series, Javier invokes the philosophical idea of Li (理), a concept found in Neo-Confucian Chinese philosophy that refers to the underlying reason and order of nature as reflected in its organic forms. This order or “natural geometry” is spontaneously generated in the physical world and can be visible, for example, in the textured patterns that arise in the bark of trees as they grow; in the ripples of sand dunes created by the wind; in the cracks that arise in dry clay; in the undulating surface of water.
Javier lives and works in Seville, Spain. He studied at the School of Arts in Seville and a postgraduate at the Universidad Complutense de Madrid. e is the recipient of numerous awards in Spain and his work on Japanese paper was recognized in the Paper Biennial of Contemporary Art at the Museum Rijswijk in the Netherlands, and the Biennale of Contemporary Art Lalin in Spain. Javier has held multiple exhibitions across Europe, with his first solo show in Hong Kong in 2015. He has participated in art fairs in Spain, Portugal, Holland, Germany, the UK, Hong Kong, Korea, Indonesia, and Taiwan.
