Diego Chilo

Diego definitely has a different way of doing things. His works are generally very abstract in that they all don't really seem to be representing anything. They are very decorative and I would even go as far as to say that his work is more representative of him as an individual because of how it shows his personality. I really appreciate art that doesn't have a purpose. A lot of critics say that this kind of purposeless art misses the point of art. I however take up the position that art is in the eye of the beholder and if you see a meaning in it, then you've taken something away from it. That is exactly what happens when you see some of his work. Each of the pieces takes everyone into a different place and beckons towards different styles and settings.

This is a good example of art that really doesn't emulate anything we've seen before. It is there for the purpose of being there and looking good. The translucent qualities of the glass used in this work make the overall style of this piece very appealing. Not only that, but the form of the curves that make up the majority of the piece are very beautiful in and of themselves.

Again, Diego shows us another piece that really doesn't have a specific goal in mind. It is there because it is there. Not only that, but the medium and overall qualities of the piece are far different from the previous piece in a way that not many artists enjoy doing. What I mean is that many artists find their niche and stick within those boundaries but I enjoy seeing artists in their full spectrum. I think it actually humanizes them a little bit more for me in that I see their strengths and their weaknesses.
