Francisco Marín (CL)
Francisco Marín lives in Santiago de Chile, where he works in visual art, performance and pop music. As an artist he focuses on compositions that explore the relationship between words, images and matter. Using different kind of media his pieces speculate about a material reality of language. From his paintings he unearth messages -either in written languaje or in abstract, figurative shapes- that change kinetically as we approach or move away from them. Accordingly, the science fiction he writes function as narrative imaginary, where different layers of meaning piled up to form new realities. He has presented his art work in Chile, Spain and Nigeria.
