About
Artist Statement
Chrilz is a drawer working in a blend between Neo-figurative and Neo-expressionism, utilizing the human form as a vessel of expression. His primary focus is human nature: our emotions, our relationships, our experiences. It is the culmination of life unfolding that fuels his need to create. All of his work is a dance between the emotional and conceptual. In every piece, all elements are composed with intentionality, thus becoming an aggregate of choices and decisions that seek to serve a final, conceptual-emotional dichotomy to enrapture his viewers. There is always an effort to express something more for Chrilz, and across any piece, series, or body of work is a rich tapestry of layers meant to resonate with individuals across the human experience. Whether it is a complete concept or the subtlety of a gentle emotion, he is constantly concerned with sharing the beautiful truths of life itself.
Through colored pencils and graphite, Chrilz employs color, line, geometry, and realism in tandem with the human form to produce his work. There is nothing outside of his reach compositionally since the intent is paramount, utilizing whatever visual means necessary in service of that end. He considers himself as a machine, receiving input from his life and the lives of others that then manifests as visual work. The integration of his existence within the overarching human narrative is at the core of his constantly growing process. JMJR.
This artistic journey is devoted to the miraculous intercession of St. Rita of Cascia.
