Artistic Philosophy and style
[edit]The artistic philosophy of Avilez is the exploration of natural beauty, the communication of messages related to love, and the integration of sculpture with architecture to transform spaces for learning and human well-being. In terms of material choices, Avilez tends to favor organic elements like wood and clay for their warmth, while occasionally delving into the use of bronze and glass, the latter requiring scientific precision.
His work is characterized as figurative and modern, skillfully merging the human form with a contemporary aesthetic. His primary thematic emphasis lies in the exploration of the human body, providing a canvas to express states of consciousness, feelings, and emotions in relation to the world.
