About this artwork
In this series the raven appears as a symbol of magic and mystery, together with the human figure in a kaleidoscopic world of color and light where abstract and figurative elements play of each other freely. In fact this pieces start off as an abstract painting and then the very abstraction suggests the figurative elements of the composition.
The bold gestural abstract architecture gives way to the gestural and energetic figurative elements in the… composition. Motion and emotion are two esencial elements that the artist seeks to achieve and express in his work.
The Raven and Crow are amongst the most intelligent animals on the planet, and in multiple mythologies ( Native American, Celtic, Viking, Hindu, etc) they represent magic, mystery and universal law.

« In my paintings and drawings I seek to capture the light and energy of Spirit, in constant motion through landscapes and the figure. »
Ricardo Valbuena (1960 - 2020) is a passionate Colombian painter and draftsman who has exhibited his work internationally, including in Ireland, Spain, the UAE, US and UK. Long fascinated by the human figure, he aims to use it as a starting point for exploring the depth of the human soul. Through rich, sensual painted surfaces, he depicts figures ascending towards light as representations of both human essence and metaphors for the journey of life. Valbuena's colour combinations and tactile textures highlight an elegant dance dance of ying and yang, forming a harmonious whole.
