Overview
Santiago Uribe-Holguín

Santiago Uribe-Holguín has maintained, throughout his artistic career, a fascination for layers and the process of unearthing them. With this current work, which has been evolving since aproximately 2015, he leaves behind his previous technique of combining oil, sand, and marble dust and in its stead, explores the delicate relationship between line and color through more traditional oil painting. While in the past Uribe-Holguín sought to expose the layers underneath by eliminating the elements above, in these new pieces, he reveals them through the strategic use of color.
