Andres, prelude to an interview






I had the chance to hang this mans work at the Melt Down at Sub-T Lounge. He hung his Transportation series. It transported everyone to another realm.
1/2 of the Luck Wings Artist Collective, Andres Contreras gives art so much passion he married it and his wife who runs the group with him. His work has toured Mexico and more. The best part of his work is the conversations of people in it's presence. It gradually creeps in to your mind. The colour slowly crawls into your retina. He uses warmer hughes and mixes what many would call washes with technical forms so naturally it's as if you imagined his painting seconds before you saw it. This is one to look out for.
