Jorge Calero

Castro Marim, Portugal
Artist (Painting)
Born 1960

Jorge Calero is a contemporary Colombian-Portuguese painter. He paints natural, wild landscapes in a most expressive and optimistically manner, driving the attention to our most intimate relationship with the living mother earth, unveiling the unseen forces and events happening at every moment in the landscape. 

Expressionist in his intention, the artist amplifies chromatically and liberates formally to emphasize the presence of light and motion so the images seem to be in the process of forming or becoming something else. Color is the vehicle through which light materializes or suggest unseen details, most of them subtle like bubbles, spores or flying insects describing their orbits around, water currents lovely looking frogs, every detail is plenty of movement making nature a whole entity dancing a spectacular choreography and there is an aura of compassion and sweet contemplation which support a contemporary vision of concern towards the environment. 

Jorge Calero was born in 1960, in Colombia.

In this series of paintings, the artist seeks to draw the viewer's attention to the latent beauty in the natural world with the aim of reversing our perception of it and reflecting on the place we occupy in nature.
The current system is decaying because of this ancestral perception that places man at the center of the world as a favorite creature of the creator who made him in the image and likeness to please itself in his similitude or rather, man made God in his image and likeness in order to justify its importance and thus justify the aggression to other silent beings and the environment.
We helplessly watch the catastrophic decline of our planet and the extinction of several animal and plant species and the only way to reverse this situation in time is to focus our more compassionate and respectful attention on nature.
