                                                    CARLOS    BOTANA

Artista multidisciplinar, traballando en axencias de publicidade, durante moitos anos, deseñou o suplemento de cultura nun diario local,movendose na pintura ,debuxo, gravado, ilustración, fotografía,mailarista histórico participando en  proxectos  tanto nacional coma internacional, realizando propostas como o” Libro colectivo de mailart Polvo” na actualidade “Sereas”. Participou en numerosas exposicions ,xa nos anos oitenta amosou a sua obra primeiramente en Paris e despois en Ginebra realizando exposicions  entre outras na Coruña, Lugo, Santiago, Valladolid, Madrid, Oporto, Barcelona, Valencia...

Na obra de Carlos Botana domina unha linguaxe propia,imaxinativa  ca que xoga. A utiliza como un filtro das experiencias cotians da vida actual, das inquietudes sociais asimiladas. Deste xeito as suas imaxes provocan confluenzas entre o físico e a memoria visual, entre o aparente e aquelo que quedanos no recordo das experiencias vividas.

O conxunto da su obra podese concebir como un diario personal e colectivo ao mesmo tempo, unión polo tanto do macro e o micro.

Acheganos sentimentos de beleza e placer é dicer: “ O sentimento Human”, de facer a vida algo máis bela é agradable, sometendonos a unha rigurosa analise intelectual que nos rodea.

I, too, began exchanging with Carlos in 2010,

and also participating in his Polbo project with an ancient Greek octopus:

He so loved the sea and all its creatures.
