Mercedes Rey paint palette Wayúu sleep customs. His brush strokes have the life of the breeze on those withdrawals fresh winds that portray the landscape of the ethnographic sense. His brush plastic observer horizons, transcends the mere representation of what is, to teach us what lies, what is, but not see it. Time, where the passage of air spaces stops stains, shadows sensed by tradition to grasp reality as experienced. Pictorial veils a secret image of everything that touches a bathroom light on the same fabric. His landscape paintings have a strong intention in Wayúu magic bends. Strong, daring, allegorical. Reflect a need for an indigenous, cultural expression that denotes mastery, fluency, abstract DS gimmick in elementary features suggestive and expressionist. Figurative where the ethnological character of the artist, includes pictorial spectra of anthropology at archaeological compose paintings in the absolute consciousness of reality Zulia. Between myths and legends, scales of dreams, wake up the figures as princesses. Mercedes Rey, Caraqueña of birth, heart Cabimera venture in the arts to address an outdoor easel that would take another tour, visit the images of both port and sea navigation to create a painting, to get into deep currents on the continental shelf of Americanism. With loose brushwork and precise atmospheres up the Peninsula, whose vague spots is inserted the drawing that depicts the great sense of what is serene, the color burst and the creative impulse. Self-taught. With a fairly extensive history of naturalism, of nativism, extending its identity to the spirituality of the trans form of heat at that border the purest color by its hue, the distance of popular demonstrations. Without further isthmus than his own quest for symbolism. Striking in the many solo and collective interests within the diversity of popular trends, cutting-edge plastic the east coast of Lake Maracaibo. Sailing directions Wayuu effects travel colorful horizontal Rey. Printing ancestry vertical stresses to a line of expression at the bottom of the form. Feeling absolutely independent of a painting in such range of climatic and yellow ocher. Often imagined in that tone of fullness that ends the journey of the representative, when Mercedes, in a stylistic focus, defines the fields painting of "ethnic people." The veiled landscapes Wayuú Mercedes Rey, seem to direct light visions of post-impressionism in Zulia. Aboriginal charms of nature, bring out pictures of dunes that prey on earth shades of hot, fiery, with a sunburn flashing color more intense. A pictorial laundering which seeks lessons of silence and din of passion under blankets of arabesques, giving pupils movement that transformed primitive eyes, wrapped in water mirages grazed by the sun. Mercedes Rey expresses the charm of nature and the more intense light in a painting done to the natural, based on the juxtaposition of the lines and colors, concentrated in a kind of plastic carpet optical heritage, visual, chromatic relationship makes a normal expression emotional as scenes taken with the more spontaneous naturalness. A figurative art typically sees a descriptive sense of a cultural prints, and a very simple and pure look of a primitivism that is identified with the characteristic of the region.
