PEDRO SOUSA LOURO | Abstract Architectural Conceptual Artist
*In his works, you can see the evolution in his dialogue with colours and geometry. Despite his preferences for contemporary artists like Francis Bacon, his reminiscence comes from the neoplasticism of Mondrian, Ben Nickolson, and in some way, Picasso. Considering that he does not stress about the subject matter, geometry, for geometry’s sake, is key in his pieces. He uses the technique of 'dropping' by Pollock but with the order and sense of Rothko. As he assures, Cubism has been part of his life but is only in the early part of his career; in his more recent research and studies, he is emerging both cubism and abstract expressionism in just one bright and sharp Pedro. His main aim is interacting and dialoguing with the spectator, telling a story. After a short figurative spell combined with his characteristic geometric style. *
