Jacinto Muñoz (1983) is an Argentine artist, lives between
Río Cuarto, Córdoba and Buenos Aires. His work is
multidisciplinary, he works with drawing, painting and
ceramics, but he also develops large-format works such as
metal sculptures and murals.
He is mainly a portraitist. His portraits are as particular as
they are difcult to dene; They are not completely people,
nor animals, nor abstract forms, but at the same time they
are all of that together, which is why they resist being
classied. They seem to be between beings and objects.
His drawings are also hybrids, geometric people partly
drawn and partly painted. In the case of the drawing, it is
more evident how he makes use of irony, questioning the
identity of the being he is portraying; the representation
oscillates between guration or a set of abstract forms,
again resisting categorizations.
In her ceramic pieces, the characters on cloth or paper
come to three-dimensional life. They are of varied colors, he
uses earth tones such as grays and browns that start from
the clay he selects, accompanied by strong acrylic colors
such as yellow, orange and blue in the same piece, which
he incorporates through painting.
