JD Malat Gallery is pleased to present Unconscious, a solo exhibition by Santiago Parra, an internationally-recognised abstract artist, born in Bogotá, Colombia in 1986. Following Black Matter, Parra’s groundbreaking solo exhibition in St. Moritz, Switzerland, JD Malat Gallery is extremely proud to firstly showcase his most recent work in New York.

Santiago studied Literature at Universidad Nacional de Colombia, followed by an art education at Universidad de los Andes, Bogotá and later at the Academy of Art University to study Fine Arts in San Francisco where he also learnt about Motion Pictures and Television. Parra is known for his large, abstract and highly expressive black and white paintings. His canvases capture the suspended flatness of the calligraphy-like imagery, harmonizing two seemingly incompatible aesthetic moments, spontaneity and pondering, which are all shaped by movement, strength, gravity and skill of the Columbian artist’s creative process. He explores the expressive possibilities of the quintessential abstract form. With an audacious manner he redefines abstract structures with bold sculptural brushstrokes. His work is both an aesthetic exploration and a questioning of the essence of abstract image making.
