Artist: Ivan Roque
Artist Statement: This piece represents a personal goal of mine in which I took the reigns back on my life and began a weight loss journey.

In my work I explore the very nature of humanity and its relation to the natural world through the depiction of flora and fauna correlating to the area or individual that the message is trying to get across. The background gives the overall mood of the piece by playing with the theory of color psychology. The animals represent that underlying nature of humans in its primitive form. The flowers depicted play heavy as well into the mood alongside the background with meaning that would cater to the work and current imagery. The vines are a staple in all of my works as they represent the connection of energy and time that is shared between all humans. The thorns in particular represent the obstacles in life and are what
makes us who we are today. I mainly do my work in acrylic and spray paint and I have much experience with all kinds of lifts and aerial equipment to get the job done right.
