Press Release
The colorful abstracts of artist Airton Kieling possess a raw essence that recalls the vibrant culture of his native Brazil. Kieling’s art reflects his search for knowledge of the unknown, the spirit, the psyche and the higher emotions. He takes these elements and translates them into a language of abstract images, creating energetic digital mixed media compositions in a myriad of loose, flowing forms reminiscent of the forces of nature and the mystery of esoteric cultures and lost civilizations. The choice of color is dominated by intense, hot primary colors – bright reds and yellows that convey the wild abandon of carnival time. Kieling’s work shows the strong influences accumulated from his extensive travels to the world’s most exotic and mystical places, as well as his interest in world religions and his reading of classical authors. Indeed, Jesus and his teachings are an important inspiration in the artist’s work and personal life. Airton Kieling was taught art by his mother, an art teacher in Brazil. He is a keen surfer who composes music and writes poetry. Kieling paints with the aim of bringing enjoyment, inspiration and enlightenment to people’s lives.
