Unfinished thinking: Paintings and Social Maps
Oscar Murillo’s exhibition, "Unfinished thinking: Paintings and Social Maps," is on view at David Zwirner’s Paris location. The show features paintings by the artist, born in 1986. Murillo describes his work as a manifestation of condensed time and harnessed thoughts, energies, and spirits expressed through color. He notes the presence of repetition, the collective, and awareness of various places and geographies in his practice.
The artist's text elaborates on the surfaces as residue, containing euphoric emotion, color, and line, reflecting scars of people and terrain. He lists Colombia, Cameroon, Ivory Coast, Philippines, UK, Poland, and Germany as locations contributing to this collective field of spirits.
