Artist Information and Statement

Abimalec Barreras, 

BFA Candidate

Instagram

Abimalec Barreras is an American graphic artist whose work focuses
on social consciousness. His work is created in Photoshop
and Illustrator and is exhibited in local galleries, poster form, and
online. His work can be seen on his instagram:@artbyabimalec.
His process of artmaking consists of utilizing photographic references
and juxtaposing photomontages, and digital sketching. His
technique is influenced by artists like Shepard Fairey, Roy Liechtenstein,
and James Jean. He utilizes a dynamic color palette
within his vector-like imagery. His work commences by considering
social issues that affect him and the world around him. I believe
we are missing didactic discussions to help us get past our
imposed limitations.
