About this artwork
This painting, titled "APOLLO," begins the "THE FOREIGN BODY" collection. It is the first work in the collection. It establishes the characteristics that I have developed throughout the rest of the collection. It brings together the initial research and aesthetic reflection and consolidates my personal style from the preceding works. The collection always includes a "foreign body," a coffee pot. This creative mechanism refers to the phenomenon by… which culture is built upon a "lack" or incompleteness of meaning, upon a structural incongruity that could, in fact, be signified by any other everyday object. APOLLO is one of my favorite paintings, for its evocative power, for its ability to captivate the viewer, for the composition of a deconstructed body that nevertheless maintains anatomical coherence, for its eroticism, and for the integration of the coffee pot in a foreshortening that is both impossible and plausible within the work itself.
Óscar Vega primarily uses oil on canvas, employing a limited palette of red, white, and black, and occasionally resin. He combines painting, drawing, and sculpture from a self-taught perspective rooted in his background in philosophy and psychology. He uses understated techniques, interpreting figuration with graphic touches, creating endearing figures and thematic collections. He pays homage to masters, incorporating ready-made objects into his chromatic schemes. His style acknowledges the imperfections of the creative process and rejects digital coldness. His works overflow with strength, rebellion, and a profound social commitment, generating a powerful emotional response, irony, and a challenging beauty with a humanist and nonconformist message.
