Federico Herrero: A Piece of Waterfall in the Sound of Crickets

Lively large-scale abstract paintings reminiscent of geographical maps, inspired by Herrero's affinity for place

With their vivid colors, the paintings by Costa Rica-born, New York-based Federico Herrero (born 1978) are connected to his profound perception of humanity within nature. His mediums stretch from canvas and paper to walls, streets and even public buildings. Their large swaths of color recall the ambiguous forms of territories on a map, and Herrero has often played with the idea of geography in his oeuvre. A Piece of Waterfall in the Sound of Crickets is taken from a piece by the Costa Rican poet Alfonso Chase, in which he reflects upon the mundane beauty of the sights and sounds of his home country, despite his frequent trips abroad. The recent paintings and monotypes included in this publication speak to Herrero's maturity as a painter after two decades of work that explores the interplay between color, form, intuition and place of origin.
