Collection: Jesús Aguado - The Joker God

The Joker God is the latest series of paintings by Jesús Aguado. His goal in this collection was to create an alternate universe, a world totally twisted in its biological and physical forms. For him, the show represents a commitment to breaking the rules in favour of absolute creative freedom.

Opening reception: Dec 4th, 6 - 9pm.

This exhibition will run from December 5th - December 24th and will coincide with Scott Listfield's show Suns and Moons, Kim Evans' Mother Tongue & Ryan Pola's show Full Bloom.

The scenes and characters include elements that contradict or disturb the essence of their nature, through them Aguado seeks a balance between opposites, a contrast. Aguado makes images aesthetically shrouded in mystery and mysticism, but always contaminated with the absurd. In this way, he tries to explain the world in which he lives.

Jesús Aguado has a degree in Fine Arts and is in constant search of new styles and ways of expressing himself through art. A fan of comics, he has won awards in various competitions (for example, Tomelloso, Portugalete, Elgoibar or Salamanca). As an illustrator he has worked on many projects for more than 15 years. Among his clients are Edelvives, Kumon, Santillana or National Geographic. In 2018 he began to use traditional methods to make paintings and escape or complement his work as an illustrator.
