“Art is not what you see, but what you make others see.” ~ Edgar Degas
Bio
Eduardo Texidor Sánchez,
Painter, draftsman, photographer and graphic designer. My work primarily uses perspectives and interpretations that relate to the human figure. The infusion of themes of love, passion and pleasure play a lyrical and dramatic role. The genre of portrait and nude compositions embody the basis of my work and provide a full assemblage of definitive and implicit envisaging; where facial and body expressions
are acutely prominent, embracing
sensual, sexual, provocative and revealing depictions.
To confront my work is to embark on a journey with an abundance of sensuality and romance. My paintings present the viewer with the complexity and struggle of eroticism that exists between themselves and their own personal approach to intimacy. This exploration idealizes each of these acts, which represent precisely the countenance as if it were to immortalize with precision the feeling of that moment. As an accumulation, my paintings revere and celebrate the desire to feel love and be loved.
