Working chiefly in oil on canvas, Óscar Vega builds his compositions around a reduced palette of red, white, and black, sometimes incorporating resin. Drawing on his studies in philosophy and psychology, Vega approaches painting, drawing, and sculpture as a self-taught artist, favoring understated techniques and direct, graphic figuration. His work brings together endearing figures and thematic series, often referencing art historical masters and integrating ready-made objects into controlled color arrangements. Vega’s practice embraces the imperfection inherent in making by hand and distances itself from digital processes. His pieces are marked by expressive intensity, irony, and a strong social conscience, pairing humanist and rebellious sensibilities.
