Deconstructed: Ernesto Artillo





There is a feeling I once felt that was yearning to be felt again.  It was the gentle rush of capturing a glimpse of artistry so pure, there was still thought dripping on canvas.

During my nightly trips to the worldwide known inspiration board we all call Pinterest, I toppled with a peculiar image; whereas I not only saw, I felt.  For as, when a grand sentiment suddenly takes over all sight and entrances my every being, I then know I have formed a lifelong bond with it.  That very sentiment is instilled in the thought provoking deconstruction of intricate reconstruction for which only AndalucĂ­a native, Ernesto Artillo could conjure.  In them, a delicate tranquility is instilled with the notion merged dreamlike surreal vistas (or wider known as daydreams) our cerebral complex provokes.  My severe admiration (and borderline obsession) over his creations led me to the quite gutsy move of sending a completely arbitrary email.  It pretty much consisted of me gushing and asking him to do a quick interview.  I hit send with the routine expectation of not getting an answer back, nonetheless, a little ding in my mailbox reassured me how wondrous life can be.
