This week, Ben talks with Daniel Djuro-Goiricelaya.
Daniel, a native of Maracaibo, Venezuela, was the second of three sons of a Cuban Basque mother and first generation Ukrainian/Russian Father. He was raised in a colorful, multicultural home where different languages were spoken, and traditions upheld; opening the windows of his imagination and awakening his artistic soul and curiosity at an early age.
In 2004, due to the turbulent political climate in Venezuela, Daniel and his family received political asylum and moved to the US.
As an interdisciplinary artist, he describes his process as Chromatic Immersion Journeys. He uses the language of color to develop works through different concrete forms such as pigments, materials, and textiles as well as non-tangible forms such as light and performance, bodies of work in which he involves political, social, aesthetic and universal issues.
Aesthetically he has a great influence by the arts and crafts of the Wayuu people. He grew up as child exposed to the work of Venezuelan artists such as Armando Reveron, Carlos Cruz Diez, Jesus Soto, Francisco Hung, Lia de Bermudez. He learned directly from Frank O'Cain in the Arts Student League New York.
Daniel was featured in Italian L’UOMO Vogue as one of New York’s up and coming artists.
Daniel is the Art Director and Co-Founder of the artist community project EL PATIO DE MI CASA (@lptdmcs) and Residency program La Casita de Bambú.
Today, Daniel lives in Bucks County PA working in both his studio sharing with people the power of emotional growth through art making and as a Community Engagement and Arts Integration Manager for Arts Academy Elementary Charter School (@artsacademyelementary) in Allentown, PA And Art Commissioner of the Allentown Arts Commission (@allentownarts), and the Art Community and Action Fellow with the Allentown Arts Museum (@atownartmuseum).
