About the Artist

Travieso's artistic journey began as a form of meditation and prayer, with him drawing almost every day of his life. The exhibition showcases a diverse collection of Travieso's artworks, each carrying a unique blend of spirituality, mysticism, and everyday life. His works draw inspiration from his personal experiences, observations, and reflections, and are a testament to his poetic vision of the world.

 Visitors to the exhibition will be captivated by the subtle nuances in Travieso's pieces.  

 The tapestries, in particular, are a marvel to behold - As you walk closer to them, you start to understand their universal, complex simplicity.

  As you walk through the exhibition, you will feel a sense of tranquility and contemplation. The works invite you to slow down and reflect, to appreciate the beauty in the ordinary and the extraordinary. It is a rare opportunity to witness the works of an artist who draws not just with his hand, but with his soul.

 Contemplatives in Action is a must-see exhibition for anyone who loves art that speaks to the heart and the mind.
