Rafa Macarrón, a self-taught artist, seamlessly blends playful drawings and figuration with vibrant, chromatic abstractions in his artwork. Macarrón's creations often explore the human form, featuring figures with numerous fingers, slender limbs, and exaggerated facial features. While he was initially trained as a physiotherapist, he uses his deep knowledge of anatomy to subvert its precision. His canvases serve as a realm of whimsy and mutation, where the corruption of scientific anatomy takes on a spirited yet slightly macabre quality, reminiscent of the figures in Picasso's iconic masterpiece, Guernica. Macarrón's dreamlike aesthetic incorporates elements of popular culture, drawing inspiration from diverse media like comics and cartoons, and infuses them into the abstract figuration style exemplified by renowned painters such as Paul Klee, Arshile Gorky, and Jean Dubuffet. Macarrón's characters inhabit two distinct landscapes within his art. In some works, he emphasizes a profound sense of isolation, placing his figures within textured color fields. In contrast, other pieces depict them in bustling, overcrowded worlds, replete with absurdist infrastructures.
