Born in Buenos Aires, Argentina in 1967, Andy Bonomo's vocation for the arts was always multi-faceted. Composer and guitarist, made music for dance and theater, recorded a dozen records and for another decade he was part of La Portuaria, one of the most acclaimed bands in Latin America in the '90s. He was interested in the visual arts at a young age. He also took painting and drawing classes, studied architecture and urbanism, and began to investigate the technique of collage. Established in Marbella since 2001, his aesthetic sensibility resulted in a successful career as an architect, with several award-winning houses and his own style on the Costa del Sol. Since then, he has made his way as a visual artist, developing a unique language through Which has finally crystallized its particular vision of body and space, rhythm and composition.

The passage from abstraction to the re-figuration of the human body is centered in a work where the canonical representations of hetero sexuality, its impostures, its ideals of beauty, its myths are put into crisis. From the gestures of bodies, textures and plots, a bridge is established to another universe in which desires, memories, violent and loving scenes, fears, experiences lived together with those imagined.

In the eroticism that hides behind porn is where we can see more clearly how the image we have of sexuality has been intervened from the beginning by its representation, becoming a kind of Western Kamasutra that undresses the abysmal fracture that exists between A sexuality designed to exhibit and the fantasies that give life to our enigmatic and bewildering sexual intimacy.

Three elements make to the physiognomy of the work: first, the method of work, inspired by the ancient technique of the draft on rice paper of the traditional Chinese art. Then, the motifs through which the images, referring to the architectural avant-gardes as art-deco, nouveau or deconstructivism, are related to other cultural traditions such as Maori art and vitreaux of religious or secular origin. Finally, the collage, whose compositional rhythm slips between erotic kitsch and pop-baroque.

Through this complex work system the two-dimensionality of the canvas is deconstructed to obtain a sort of shadow theater: a new scene in which the images are undone and remade, transmuting into an experience of tenderness, passion and comfort.
