About the Artist:
(Artist Bio)
Kikyz1313 is a fine artist born in 1988 in Querétaro, Mexico, and creates both beautifully intricate graphite drawings and oil paintings.
From beneath the initially alluring, and understated, first impression of the works, emerge unexpected oppositions and abject tensions. Studies in the afflicted wretchedness of humanity, her work is neither despondent nor obviously gory, but rather presents an aestheticized nightmare of sublime abhorrence; ambiguously gorgeous despite its agonizing discomfort.
She received a BFA from the Universidad Autónoma de Querétaro, and debuted her first solo exhibition at the Museo de la Ciudad de Querétaro, which followed a bloom of gallery and art fair group exhibitions along the USA, Europe and Mexico along several features in acclaimed art magazines such as Juxtapoz, Beautiful Bizarre Magazine, Hi Fructose among others.
Her endeavors have also resulted in solo exhibitions in 2016 with ‘The Progeny of Chaos’ in Los Angeles, California; and further in 2017 with ‘Body Puzzle’ in Boston.
Showed in several art fairs and group exhibitions in the USA, Berlin and London as recently presented her second solo show entitled ‘The Progeny of Chaos’ in Los Angeles, California.
