Miguel Milló

Between magic, beauty and equality, the images that Miguel Milló, a

contemporary plastic artist, offers us, expose a logo that resides in Mother

Nature, which is the faithful representative of the world and its humanity,

being the great organizer of the components of the Works of “Throbbing

Life”, as if these were the verses of photographed visual poetry, full of color.

Since his beginnings, Miguel Milló has developed an extensive photographic

series around the figure of woman and the multiple human canvases that he

offers through their bodies, given his deep admiration for feminine aesthetics. offers

Its object of representation is based on the beauty of these diverse anatomies,

favoring the multiple readings that they provide thanks to their interaction with

the crackled chromatic muds that cover their skins and other organic

materials, such as fruits, vegetables, plants, seeds, flowers or powders. These

ornamental ideals are a dogma in the artist’s work, since all the postulates are

closely related to the elements of nature.

Creator of his own, very personal universe, and with a great poetic and visual

charge, the artist transmits various messages through a timeless photographic

language, which translates legacies from more classical artists, such as

Giuseppe Arcimboldo one of the figures of mannerism during renaissance, to

more recent artists such as Anna Tokarska or Stelarc, who also work with

organic materials and with these human canvases. This language not only

dilutes the time lines within the framework of its influences, but also does the

same with the cultural barriers that can segregate human beings according to

their features, skin color or geographical origin.

Its last claim is, through the bodies of women, create universal beings, as a

giver of life, permeating cultures and promoting a message of equality

regardless of any social factor that may disintegrate them. He achieves this

thanks to a random artistic elaboration, consisting of the free will of the

placement of pigments and natural elements on living canvases, but always

with an aesthetic and artistic sense.

“Throbbing Life”, therefore, is an anthology series of all the human

canvases that this contemporary artists has been producing in recent

years, and that value the aesthetics of female bodies, under a halo of

equality. These are immortalized, then, in their respective photographs.

He usually Works with large formats, and always giving priority to color

over dark backgrounds that allow the polychromos and materials that

apparel his human canvases to stand out. He always uses high definition

photography photography that allows you to distinguish even the smallest detail of his

productions.

Definitely, Miguel Milló is not just any plastic artist. He has managed to

create a very personal essence, whose philosophy has been established

thanks to these creations that he has been devising over the last decade.

With suggestive titles such as Lava (2014), Cacao (2018), or To hide my

passion for you (2017), his images, which present practically magical and

universal beings, directly connected with Mother Nature, whispering the

heartbeats of these living Works that indicate an hymn to love, life,

beauty and specially, equality, showing that there is a woman at the

beginning of all things.
