Lease artwork "Luzile" by Luz Garcia De Zielinski with an option to purchase

I was born in Mexico City, the largest city in the world where duality is undoubtedly omnipresent, where life and death, joy and sadness, beauty and cruelty, conscience and corruption are inseparable and intertwined. meet every day. Life there is as surreal as a Luis BUNUEL film: “Too raw to be true and too beautiful to be real”. I grew up in this universe of colors, smells, music, flavors, emotions, passions, joys, pains, love, hatred, heat and sunshine with the images on display. Jodorovsky. I lived my entire childhood in this surreal world that is Mexico City and from a very young age, my life was embedded in the arts. It is said that whoever survives Mexico City can survive anywhere in the entire world! You need creativity and imagination to live there. You have to be a bit of an “artist” to be able to survive in this immense and crazy city of almost 30 million inhabitants! My country and especially my hometown are like the symbol so often used by the Aztecs: on one side the SUN and on the other, the MOON!
Its culture is also half Indian and half Spanish! In my veins, there is a happy mix of the four races! On my father's side I have Aztec Indian blood and on my mother's side I have a variety of mixes: we have Spanish and other ancestry!
Pre-Columbian and Egyptian mythology fascinate me, just as much as Indian philosophy and symbolist art. My work strives to create a balance between these different influences which, for me, come from the same spiritual approach, that of the elevation of the human being.
Since man has existed, he has never stopped wondering about life and death. It is a subject that has fascinated ancient civilizations and continues to do so today. My work is the small universe of my interior, as far as this theme is concerned. I share the thoughts of certain civilizations: everything is alive in the universe, all species are important, all life has the same value as any other. In my work, I drew a lot of inspiration from Egypt, which is, without doubt, one of the civilizations that most explored death and the afterlife. There existed, as everyone knows, everything a symbolism about death and the spirit behind these hieroglyphs, these pyramids, these sarcophagi, these statues and these rituals.
Duality is omnipresent in my work: life and death, white and black, yin and yang. She follows me, touches me, inspires me and allows me to express all my emotions, all my thoughts and all these inner reflections that I cannot express in words. Art is a true discovery of oneself. Even if it often remains unconscious and unadmitted!! It is the communion between the body and the spirit, it is the communication between man and the universe! It is an exploration of its properties...
