Playful mixed media works from Chilean artist Mario Felipe

Chilean creative Mario Felipe spends his days working in commercial design at a studio called Salvaje, or Wild in English. That’s all well and good – he’s obviously a talented designer – but today we’re more concerned with the solo, fine art practice with which he fills his evenings. Mario’s a painter and mixed media collage artist who works his own abstract ideas on top of found imagery and texts. No surface is off limits, from scraps of cardboard and old family photographs to the yellowed pages of unbound works of fiction. The results are simple yet satisfying; iconic works of both geometric and organic abstract that feel playful and accessible.
