Juan Carlos Navarro

Mexican visual artist, Juan Carlos Navarro Sanchez, was born in Jalisco, 1975. His interest in art began in childhood when he was recognised for his outstanding talent for drawing and painting. The techniques he learned during adolescence were the use of pastels, charcoal, acrylic and oil, which are the basis for his practice now. Currently, he focuses on mixing these techniques while developing his own unique style in a self-taught way. Among his most outstanding works are Kinetic Sound Image, Lineal - Non Lineal and Naturales.

In Kinetic Sound Image, the artist expresses his academic interest in engineering and architecture with the influence of cubism reflected in his canvases. Light, shape and space play key roles in his collections, by creating a visual symphony presented in a concrete way. Colours establish a rhythm for the saxophone, piano, percussion and other instruments magically intertwined. Each of the works alludes to the jazz imaginary of legendary North American cities.

Navarro manages to capture the beauty of being and the vital energy beating in each branch, leaf, fruit and environment of the natural world, but, above all, he expresses a spiritual awakening nourished by contemplation. In each of these beings, the need to go towards the internal realm led by the voice of the soul can be seen in the human body. The artist conveys the understanding of life in unity with the universe and in constant evolution. The presented figures express joy at their transformation, and emanate light of a being at peace with themselves.

In short, his creations take us to an ethereal, creative and incorporeal universe, a space of conjunction between matter and spirit, managing to express the world of the invisible in the tangible. The art he creates and expresses unity, completeness and eternity.

His work has been exhibited both nationally and internationally. Those held in Mexico have been particularly outstanding, notably in Puerto Vallarta, Ribera de Chapala, Mexico City, Oaxaca, Guanajuato, Baja California, Hermosillo and Sonora. Notable international exhibitions included those in California, New York, Houston, McAllen and Paris.
