Statement
The works of the artist Ramiro Llona resemble abstract urban interiors that somehow echo the traditional definition of Abstract Expressionism. Llona is interested in geometric shapes that arise from past and present influences. Transform your conceptual world into powerful compositions. Llona uses bright and impulsive colors that seem to want to jump out of his fabrics, but he holds them by outlining each structure with thick black lines.
