About this artwork
His fascination with frogs and toads comes from his period at the Academy of Fine Arts. His degree thesis was dedicated to these animals; he posed all philosophical questions through images of anurans. Frank Arias is aware of the power of the image and the association capacity of the human brain, which is why in the pieces where frogs appear he has always painted them performing actions as if they were humans in question. This is why Frog Number…
4 makes a difference by portraying this little animal as it is, without the desire to associate it with anything human.
"Frog Number 4" is the fourth edition of the original drawing of this amphibian. Done differently each edition.
"Often, I like to reinvent old ideas and give them another ending, it's like turning back in time and rediscovering another reality very different from the one I had already achieved"

« The art must be how to see a high-performance athlete play or a scientist talk about quantum physics and we know that not everyone can do it. »
Frank Arias is an artist based in Spain whose paintings have been exhibited nationally and in Cuba. He cites his sources of inspiration as originating from the great mystery of life outside of our planet. Arias is intrigued about the genesis of life and the possibility of civilizations that are more advanced than us. His figurative compositions teem with diverse characters and scenes that are not found in reality, portrayed with a hint of irony and satire.
