Combining painting, drawing, sculpture, and writing, Daniel Correa Mejía (b. 1986) deftly mines imagery from his own subconscious to mythologize the landscape of his interior world. His highly symbolic figures personify various emotional states, becoming one with their scenery as contemporary society fades away and sacred, primordial knowledge is uncovered. Juxtaposing rich ultramarine with vibrant red on rough jute canvas, Correa Mejía invokes the complimentary nature of masculine and feminine energies to summon the divine power of contrasting forces, simultaneously grappling with the process of grief and loss, rediscovering sanctuary within the power of the human imagination and the interconnectivity of our shared planet. The artist was born in Medellín, Colombia and currently lives and works in Berlin, Germany. His solo exhibitions include Soy el dueño de mi casa, P·P·O·W, New York, NY; Cuando el depredador está lejos: los pájaros canta, Maureen Paley at Studio M, London, UK; Lucrecia, mor charpentier, Paris, FR; Soy hombre: duro poco y es enorme la noche, Fortnight Institute, New York, NY; Amor y Agua, Public Gallery, London, UK; and Die Klarheit, Colombian Embassy, Berlin, Germany.
