Introduction

Introduction

The spiritual life of the Caribbean

is reflected in this exhibition, in an

aesthetic based on the colors and shapes. Like a personal

worship culture of Puerto Rico. The one that I think should

be protected and preserved in order to fulfill its historical

destiny.

The paintings are a representation of the

human character, reflection of my environment and

experiences. But not only on the island of Puerto Rico

also draws on the experiences and people who respond

to this cultural gathering that occurs in the diasporas

as a conservation model. I focus on the pieces by

Caribbean spirituality that has a universal aspiration and

transcendentalism, in a aesthetics what are designed in

various forms worldwide. Look at the rhythms, color and

harmony come from the peoples knows that come from

the paradise. My art is an extrapolation branch of my

Caribbean island that is a root that holds the culture.

Biographic

Born 1969 in San Juan Puerto

Rico in 1988 come to be part

of the artists on Galeria Latinoamericana by Domingo

Garcia art direction. Make studies in Liga de arte de San

Juan. Sagrado Corazón University and Escuela de Artes

Plástica Puerto Rico.

In 1996, Gaddier establish the firsts artist

studio in San Juan Puerto Rico, He perhaps this positioned

it like one of the first sketcher of professional virtual reality

in the Caribbean preparing illustrations for architects and

designers as much at local level as international, standing

out like photographer, illustrator, graphic designer and

fine artist.

He resided in Puerto Rico until he relocated

to New England in 2004. He has established the Gaddier

Fine art studio in Massachusett.

We just got hereand we do not knowhow it happened. do notask where do we come from:it is enough to know thatwe are here.

Artist Statement

Artist Statement

Search and I search for myself

amongst the threads of forms and

colors, telling my ideas and ideals in the painting. An

invitation to a mute world: where you may converse with

the self that inhabits within each one of us.

My art is autonomous and eclectic; it is

polluted through life, rendered sensible to the figures

and symbols of the era and the signs of time: the raw

matter that is transfigured by art as an offering beyond

its immediacy. Always searching to freely capture the

sensibility that surrounds’ me and, as its consequence,

express my own truth.

Know color and be able to project it with the

passion of signs from my experiences, is my personal goal.

A search to domesticate the gammas with the naturalist

and elegance of abstraction and figuration of events and

feelings would be the mystical lyric that defines my art.
