- Description: In Reflejos, Rosado del Valle deviates from the linear abstractions in primary colors typical of his career to focus on the materiality of painting an immaterial place. Through a constant search of expression, Rosado del Valle explores the density of pigments by applying short, thick strokes repetitively in a collage on the canvas, relying on the paint itself to recreate the landscape, reminiscent of the tachisme of French artists Pierre Soulages and Jean Fautrier. -Text by Cierra Frances
