Diego Sainz Garcia
Born 1975, Logroño, Spain. Lives and works in Hereford (UK).
Starting from abstract expressionism as a primitive reference, Diego Sainz Garcia’s artistic practice moves between painting and drawing with incursions into sculpture, installation and performance. Central to his work is an exploration of pictorial techniques and materials, in a constant search for an authentic language. This language is born from the subconscious and has an important component of spontaneous expression and action painting.
Finding a channel of communication through an organic, sincere and familiar form of practice is the engine of his aesthetic discourse. A form of practice that desires to capture the fleeting, to reinterpret the everyday, to show us the residue of life, with colours and strokes that sabotage the passage of time. For Diego, painting becomes an inevitable necessity, to shine and make the subject of exploration shine.
