Tree (You are alone) | Xavi García

(URBAN ROOTS) The series “Urban Roots” presents the artist's vision that analyzes the relationship between society and individuals with nature. The work depicts the different moments of uncertainty in our society, in which the relationships between citizens and their relationship with their environment are the basis of this series. The concern for individual identity, uprooting, and social conflicts are ultimately reflected in these types of trees that suffer and enjoy who we are today. From a technical point of view, this painting possesses great richness, as different materials and techniques are combined, giving the work great material richness that awakens the viewer's curiosity and interest in the work. The artist uses posters, maps, concert or show tickets, QR codes, etc., to create a narrative base for his work, from which he begins to adhere large masses of paint and elements that make this series one of Xavi García's most identifiable. As we can observe in the different works, his style can flow from the figurative to a slight abstraction.
