Discover the contemporary work of Tchokos.art
The majority of myworksare conceptualized on the desire to offer anemotionalgift to others. someone. Somehow, I feed on the other and give them a little piece of my affection in return ;) hence my pseudonym "Tchokos" (small pieces).
Why wouldn't the painting take the form of the work itself?
The idea of cutting, engraving and paintingwooden boardscame to me when I Icut out a door to put a cat flap in it. It was 2021, where I had to find a gift for a loved one. So I started engrave his first name in Mayan glyphs on the remaining part of the door in the shape of a square, rounded on the edges. I then added to it. carefully paint acrylic with flat areas of color like the "alfombras", these long coats of flowers and colorful fruits that line the streets during Holy Week in Guatemala. Since then, I have been collecting all kinds of wooden boards to transform them intoemotions.
