"I want
people to feel what I am doing - not just see what I am painting."
Henry Asencio
Henry Asencio artwork combines
figurative drama with spontaneous abstract backgrounds. His
signature use of color, form, and texture coalesce to reveal
a contemporary dialogue between the material and the spiritual--the
artist, his subject and his subconscious visions derived therein.
Agitated by extreme texture and intentional use of color, Henry
Asencio unravels an unspoken narrative replete with seemingly
incongruent, yet harmonious ideals of quietude and fascinations
of that which intensifies the moment.
Asencio's unique combination
of color, texture, and exquisite form mirrors a state of awareness
that serves to reveal his true intentions. Through caution and
reserve the artist invites the viewer into this fictitious space
in time to enjoy the splendor of the unknown.
Symbolic of the approach to
his art, the mystique of the female form builds the structure
of each new painting. Henry Asencio's use of color sets the
mood and a fury of texture creates an urgency to elicit heart-felt
emotion.
Abstraction of subconscious
thought and reality entwine to tell the artist's story. Freedom
from responsibility, protection from the negative forces that
can hold one captive…escapism…for the artist and
viewer it is the ultimate intention in his evocative work of
art.
