Juan Manuel Romero
International Artist
Born in Argentina, Buenos Aires, Juan Manuel Romero is a prolific artist and an active polytonal musician/composer. He is inspired by textures and colours that represent his imagined representations of the amalgamation of these creative passions. Romero utilises inter-modality as a tool, chiefly through his musical interests, where it guides his visual expression of the auditory, paradoxically through a canonised silence.
His artworks abound with the echoes of his vibrant life, linking melodies and painting through the embodiment of both artforms. The artist’s ethos is tantamount to his creative vision, Romero states, “Both, rhythm and art, have the power to summon the other.” Indeed, his work in both arenas is directly fed by the other, where symbols and sounds form a confident crescendo depicting a wordless world, one that arguably represents the nature and movement of the human psyche with greater authenticity than the realms of language do.
