My Focuses: Dark Artist, Digital Artist, Photo Manipulator, Surreal Artist, Freelance Artist
What I do: Osvaldo González is a self-taught artist, born in Argentina. Working in a melancholic vein, Osvaldo creates complex and emotional scenarios of the human condition and strange dreamlike figurations. He has a knack for creating dark mysterious stories. His use of layering to create depth, tonal qualities, and aged effects are decisive and work together to produce otherworldly narrative moments with a delicate and detailed sense of atmosphere and transparency. His passion for the ancient is present in his traditional art. He uses acrylics, clay, found objects, to obtain dark compositions. He currently resides in Miami, Florida, with his wife Mariana and your maltese Atila.
"Osvaldo is a manipulator, a composer, a juggler of images. He knows what he wants and gets it. He creates outrageous, preposterous, improbable scenarios of everyday life in some remote or parallel universe where things evolved differently and with a different logic. The events in his narrative work require the viewer to interpret the message for himself. Sometimes gloomy, sometimes obscure, always with an urgent vitality... An impending future we may not want to see. A dark sense of humor also plays its part in the work of this accomplished artist." David Genovesi, Artrom Gallery, Rome, Italy
"The surrealism of Osvaldo's dreamscapes is grounded by his restrained color palette. There's a highly personal and weirdly compelling style on display here." Richard Hill, Editor Imagine FX, UK
