Discover the contemporary work of Dasil

Born in Mexico, and resident of Montreal since the spring of 2002, DASIL is a professional, self-taught, fine art artist, continuously active for almost twenty years.In parallel with a multi-year career in commercial photography, corporate communications and television programming production, DASIL has developed a rich pictorial work, original and very personal. Upon his recent arrival in his new adoptive country, he confirmed his firm will to devote himself totally from now on to the development of his painting.Working as well with acrylics, oils or inks, DASIL presents imaginative figurative paintings, responding to a mix of influences going from surrealism to classicism, fantastic, allegoric or sacred art. The fineness and the precision of the drawings are enhanced by the richness of the colors and hues, allowing the artist to share with us some of his passions, such as music, mythology, or history. The whole of his work is meant to be a celebration of life. To the more careful observer, DASIL loves to offer fine composite and complex images, with hidden details and compositions, then revealing a secondary symbolism which remains for ever vivid.The works of DASIL are found in many private collections, be it in Mexico, in the United States, in Canada, in Argentina, in France and in Germany.
