Gus Ocamposilva

Colombian-American Artist Gus Ocamposilva has made a formidable impression on art enthusiasts around the world. Ocamposilva received most of his formal art training in Spain, where he studied murals at the Massana School of Barcelona and painting procedures at Barcelona University(1992-1995). Having lived in Latin America, Europe, and the United States, his travels influence his art a great deal. He works as a team with his wife Lina, together they make and install colorful sculptures around the world and share the same passion for art.

Their sculptures are made of strong aluminum, but appear soft and fluid. The bended forms incorporate tubes and exposed bolts. They created their own style with character using bright colors, empty spaces and balance. Forms appear and pervade on the surface showing poignancy and verb in all their art works that become an abstraction of the figurative forms.
They want to show in all their works their passion for live and nature.

Gus and Lina Ocamposilva have been awarded with more than 50 public art exhibitions and permanent installations commissioned by different cities in North America; becoming the couple of Latin
American sculptors with more jut in the American public art market.
