NOW works

I use this term for recent and in progress works. They are concepts and visions of our present day.  NOW works is about new ideas and concerns, rather than solely the aesthetic (the look of the work). I try different “combine” ways of experimenting with unorthodox ideas, materials and mediums that embody our new way of thinking, and the influence of emerging technologies within our environments. They are works conditioned by the technological advances of the industrial — technological age that caused contemporary society to manifest itself in new ways compared to the past.
In other words, they are my creative response to the world’s changes, practices and perspectives of our lives and ideas.

2025 colaborations

aJ — aka: Angel Diaz | John Mano

The collaboration between Diaz’s exuberance and Mano’s introspection results in vibrant works that spark meaningful dialogue about the complexities of modern relationships. This partnership celebrates a love for color and shapes that transcends physical space, while simultaneously challenging the organic essence of intimacy in today’s increasingly digital world. The overall effect of their work is both haunting and uplifting, inviting the audience to reflect on their own experiences within the realm of organic/cyber romance and the preservation of biotic diversity.
