René Máynez
René Máynez is a multimedia artist whose work has been shown extensively in the U.S., Mexico and in Europe. He draws inspiration for his work from early life experiences. He describes his creative process in the following way: “My forms have memory, they remind me sometimes of objects I used to examine as a child. My inspiration is linked to directness and methods to transform deeply felt experiences into visual facts.”
M Redinger states: “the artistic works of Máynez reveal the exquisite sensitivity of his spirit; throughout his ample range of themes, always tempered by his personal and deftly attuned synthesis of media and technique. By means of his delightful flights of fancy, always accompanied by his suggestively meaningful and symbolic use of color, he transports us to real and imaginary settings and characters. Sometimes the magic of his transformative power appears to embody massive and well-known or rather recognizable emblematic symbols of ages past, as well as modern everyday ones with which we are quite familiar. However, his unusual capacity for transformation and transcendence allows him, sometimes unexpectedly, to make the obvious appear obscure, and vice versa.” You may view his artwork at: www.renemaynez.com
