About this artwork
The "Piero" series is a contemporary homage to the painter Piero della Francesca. It features a female figure depicted in her emblematic religious roles, cloistered within antique settings heavy with sanctity—sometimes a holy mother, sometimes an angelic maiden, sometimes a serpent-woman wielding a thousand spells. With a few audacious strokes of acrylic paint, Carlos Lorca disrupts the solemnity of these noble photographs, revisiting them with an…
iconoclastic extravagance imbued with playfulness and joie de vivre.

Carlos Perez Lorca, a self-taught artist based in Brussels, expresses himself through photography, sculpture, drawing, and painting. As a child, he spent several years isolated in a pediatric center for chronic illnesses. Left to his own devices, he used drawing to tame his unspeakable pain. Today, he explores a variety of techniques, alternating between dreamlike and saccharine compositions featuring childhood objects such as marshmallows and dolls, and expressive, spontaneous painting that draws its strength from the currents of the subconscious. His work is deeply moving in its unsettling emotional charge, inviting us to experience the complexity of the soul's movements and the depths of human folly.
