Rafa Macarrón is obsessed with human solitude before the immensity of the universe. We can discern unique beings that take centre stage in each of his works, simultaneously embodying the universal and the unrepeatable. In his more recent work, featured in this exhibition catalogue, the artist has returned to a darker range of colours, mostly using black or grey, with occasional touches of ochre. Cleary visible are the influence of comic books, Spanish painting of the 1950s and ’60s, and artists such as Fraile, Matta, Quirós, Picasso, and Dubuffet. In addition, Macarrón’s deep-ranging knowledge of the human body serves as a driver in the creation of his imaginary characters.
