Barcelona.0002 - David Schmitt/ Tuyo

Tuyo: In his work, he combines an archaic and childlike aesthetic with bold visual presence and commentary, highlighting texture and rough shapes to capture a timeless simplicity.

"I have always been drawn to a certain aspect of storytelling in painting, I think of it as a crossover between Folk-, Pop-, and Cave-art so for me it feels deeply human. There is so much beauty and truth to be found in traditional craftsmanship and old tales of folklore. I hope that we can continue to maintain our appreciation for the involvement of the human hand and mind with all its imperfections as preserving these practices means preserving the soul in the world that surrounds us."
