Join Kingston Gallery Emerging Artist, Erick Maldonado for an Artist Talk about his current exhibition "Delights Momentum."
Emerging Artist, Erick Maldonado, engages contemporary concerns and invites others to find their own narrative through images. In Delights Momentum , Erick combines his own exploration of identity with momentary responses to his environment and uses emblematic symbols to convey expressions of delights and joy. Large, animatic, and motionary charcoal drawings carry bold, textured lines that focus on a recollection of habits, objects, and space attached to one’s living experience. Works are inspired by what “reclamation” is, and the complexities of how that is offered through the hybridity of material.
Erick is a Massachusetts based Dominican-American painter/visual artist, who primarily works with acrylic, oil, and mixed media using found materials, collage, and discarded materials to engage in his work. Erick explores themes of family, black gay/homosexual culture, interpersonal relationships, Dominican folklore and biodiversity. Through his paintings, Erick explores issues of race, class, and gender through figure, portraiture, and social media.
