Francisco Donoso

I’m interested in the optical, emotive, and tactile qualities of color and its potential for materializing the infinite, transcendental and phenomenological. Using layered, semi-transparent mylar and glowing plexiglass, my mixed-media paintings embody luminosity and feature an abstracted chain-link fence motif. Through this abstraction, I subvert assumptions about migration, borders, and undocumentedness, collapsing binaries and reaching beyond physical barriers to excavate hidden dimensions of migration. The result is a psychedelic realm that transforms the fence into a portal to a liberated interiority, consciously uncolonizable.
