« Alegría. »
Kwesi Abbensetts es un pintor y fotógrafo estadounidense cuyas obras se han exhibido ampliamente en los Estados Unidos, así como en el Reino Unido y Francia. Al describirse a sí mismo como un intuicionista, su proceso creativo está guiado por un llamado intuitivo e inconsciente que se basa en la espera, la inspiración espontánea y el sentimiento. Las composiciones vibrantes, expresivas y diversas de Abbensetts nacen del color, la experimentación y el cambio.
