El Abrazo

Collagraphy , 2024

Dimensions:

In this intimate collagraph print titled "The Hug," CHOCO depicts a merged figure in radiant golden yellow set against a vibrant red background. The composition showcases two forms intertwined in an embrace, their bodies becoming one through the artist's masterful manipulation of line and form. The figure is marked by deep, intricate incisions that create a complex network of textures and patterns across the surface, suggesting both the physical and emotional aspects of human connection. The dark, carved lines that define the anatomy and movement of the figures demonstrate CHOCO's exceptional command of the collagraph technique.

The textural richness achieved through the collagraph process gives the piece a sculptural quality, with the deeply embossed lines and varied surface treatments creating a sense of depth and dimensionality. The embracing figures are rendered with a combination of geometric and organic forms, their features simplified yet expressive, with subtle details like the small face peeking out from the top of the composition. The contrast between the warm golden figure and the bold red background heightens the emotional intensity of the piece, while the intricate linear patterns carved into the surface suggest the complexity of human relationships and emotional bonds.
