Bio: 

Abel Cardenas Jr is a mixed media artist based in Lodi, CA. He is currently a student at Stanislaus State University. Abel recently started working in large scale works over the past year. He expects for his work to get even bigger as soon as he finds the space to allow it. Focusing on drawing the human body from memory. While mixing fantasy like elements that he pulls from his childhood. Abel's other hobbies consist of spending time with family/pets and watching the Dallas Cowboys play. He is currently working on a series that will be ready to show soon. Those who are interested in Abel Cardenas’ work can contact him by following his social media account on Instagram to view upcoming work and shows.

Artist Statement: 

The ultimate goal is to make the viewer experience a surreal taste of beauty and freedom found through the exploration of heightened state of consciousness. Using nude figures, as a reminder of how fragile we all are but yet so powerful. Combining abstract elements such as color, shape and texture to depict the fluidity of human emotions and the power of our subconscious desires. With the idea of using art as a portal to more exotic and intoxicating realities. I explore the union of fantasy, sex and psychedelics through my art. 

“Gods Of Creation” uses paper scraps held together with duct tape.  The drawing is process based and grew in scale as it developed. I am a vessel. The creative process guides every move I make and eventually evolves into its completed formation. I abstract human anatomy to allude to motion, to create a sort of flow that engages the eye, mind, and spirit of my audience. This total engagement of body and mind is enhanced by fantastical aspects of this work and black light paint illustrated through the lines and shapes create an otherworldly realm.
