United States, 1974
Sergio Quirós (/’kee-ROSS/; b. December 2, 1974, San José, Costa Rica) is a NYC-based artist working in digital media, including painting, photography, video, and audio. His work spans the range between figurativeness and abstraction, combining elements from different styles such as surrealism, hyperrealism, chiaroscuro, tenebrism, and primitivist symbolism.
Quirós’ work is influenced by his own life experience; it often alludes to the human condition and the dilemma of existence in times of ideological, political, and spiritual fragmentation at both the individual and the collective levels.
