Oaxaca, 1982. Eddy Vaskez began his artistic training at
Profile the Casa de la Cultura Oaxaqueña, continuing at the
Taller Rufino Tamayo and the Taller Juan Alcázar. He also
specialized in lithography under the guidance of master
Per Anderson. Born in a land of great tradition, where
the voices of great artists resonate from ancient times
to the present, to contribute his own voice, magic, and
color to the dialogue of contemporary art.
His work unfolds like a vibrant tapestry, with swift lines
traced by delicate butterflies and restless mosquitoes
that assault the crescent moon, heralding the good rains
to come. In his compositions, he seeks lost dreams
within empty vessels or ones filled with everything,
while insects accompany the path of mysterious canoes
in silence, sailing toward a destination that seems
beyond the canvas but is so within it that it reveals itself
with a careful look. Women with fish tails and long hair
extend their hands, attempting to pluck the moon from
the heights of the composition, creating scenes that
challenge the imagination and transport the viewer to
fantastical and lively worlds.
