Sealebration Schilderij door Ezra Bejar

Professional artist from Mexico City based in San Diego, California. Bejar was educated in both the arts and the sciences. His art narrative is guided by his own transformation after a temporary loss of vision and 30 years of experience in scientific research. Ezra paints an alternative reality distilling color and shapes with traditional and modern (digital) methods.

His paintings are provocative, energetic and innovative. They are rich in color, geometries, textures and esthetics. Ezra’s art has reached global audiences, with his paintings being exhibited and collected in the US, Europe, Asia and Mexico.

Ezra was recognized as a binational artist by the Mexican Government Ministry of Foreign Affairs (IME), and elected as a board member of the International Association of Art (IAA USA, constituted and formalized by UNESCO in 1954). Since 2010, he has participated in over thirty solo and collective exhibitions in the US and internationally.

Statement
My artwork has evolved from a purely physical form of painting, to working with digital art, animation, and recently post-digital painting. This is an art form conceptually shaped by the internet and digital processes, but insisting on bringing materiality to it. Thoughts and ideas flow from a time scale that includes my ancestors, current events, ideas found in nature, historical documents, world travel and scientific publications.

The Alternative Reality (AR) Series
AR display layers of harmonious colors, light and shadows, with dissonant elements peeking audience's interest to explore more. This series depict our life on earth and changing reality during the pandemic. The bright paintings are full of creative optimism and evolving positive solutions. In the dark collection, the artist is haunted by unsettling changes in our ecological and social fabric. A bleak collection, representing a roller coaster of human emotions.
