jamie Martinez Triangulism
|
Visual artist, Jamie Martinez, moved to Florida at the age of 12 from his hometown of
Cali, Colombia. After attending Miami International University of Art and Design and
receiving the prestigious Hispanic Designer's scholarship, he moved to New York to
pursue his Bachelor's degree (F.I.T.), and to follow his dream in the Visual Arts.
Jamie Martinez is a figurative painter using a new movement in painting called
Triangulism; which deconstructs the image by using geometric triangles, and by
process of elimination, only its core triangles are left to show its true meaning,
form and structure. He believes that everything in life is part of a three point
system: beginning, middle, and end. His paintings are created with professional oil
paints; and a combination of painting knives and brushes. Not one to follow others,
Jamie’s work clearly expresses his exceptional view at life and art. He has shown all
over New York City, Miami and recently in Canada.
Jamie adopts a mixture of street, artistic, and vanguard photography to display
altered sides of everyday things. His street photography is raw and in your face;
with all kinds of interesting subjects, his black and white photos speak for
themselves. He also believes that even the smallest and most useless objects, seen
through a distinct prospective, can give the object life and meaning. . Jamie
Martinez is currently represented by Orchard Windows Gallery in New York City;
which is where he also resides.
