Rómulo Celdrán

* 1973 Gran Canaria

Current

Rómulo Celdrán works as a hyperrealist. He recreates everyday objects such as gloves, paint cans or hot-water bottles three-dimensionally or even by drawing, but enlarges the objects in such a way that our gaze falls in a completely new way on the supposedly familiar. The sculptural quality of the waste that results from the sharpening process can then be experienced.
