Pelele

"I was in my studio when my daughter asked me what I was painting. 'I don't know', I said. 'It seems that you are painting portals to another life', she answered. Since then I see my paintings as a door to a place where it is possible to open up to all that my Chihuahua hides. And it is up to us to open those doors that are closed."

Arty-Fact: "Pelele is a character in my imagination. He has been a presence from the time I began human figure studies. He has appeared again and again to take life in my imagination. He is a reflection of me. What is echoed back in the canvas is an interpretation of my soul.

"The scene depicted in this work comes from an imaginary world reflected in a puddle of water. A portal into another world. From there, you can see what the mind invites you to create, each with their imagination can see what their reflection suggests." ~ Ale Osollo
