“BANANA ALCHEMY ” EXPLORING NATURAL COLORS.
Diego Sierra Enciso’s works are notable for their impressive fusion of natural materials and traditional techniques. By using banana leaf tincture along with oil paint, you achieve a unique and rich visual experience. This approach not only infuses an organic element into his paintings, but also conveys deep symbolism, highlighting the connection and dialogue between nature and human creations. The colors that result from this process are vibrant and energetic, spanning a palette that ranges from greens and yellows to intense reds. The textures achieved through oil paint create depth and deliberate contrast that further highlights the different elements of the composition.
The themes of the paintings focus on natural motifs, with figures reminiscent of plant forms and botanical elements. The arrangement of the leaves and their structure within the canvas suggest a tribute to natural forms and their intrinsic symmetry. When observing each painting, a unique atmosphere is perceived, the result of the variation in colors and the atmosphere they generate, which invites viewers to explore different emotions and moods. Thus, Sierra Enciso’s works are presented as a tribute to nature, taking advantage of their chromatic and textural richness to create a visual dialogue that celebrates the eternal link between art and the natural environment.
