Lilian Garcia-Roig

 Lilian Garcia-Roig is Cuabn American artist living in Tallahassee, Florida. 

Her latest works feature large-scale on-site painting installations of dense landscapes that overwhelm the viewer’s perceptual senses. Each individual painting is created over the course of the day in an intense wet-on-wet cumulative manner that underscores the complex nature of trying to capture first-hand the multidimensional and ever-changing experience of being in the environment.

Formally, the artist's works are as much about the materiality of the paint and the physicality of the painting process as they are about incorporating the illusionist possibilities of oil landscapes with abstract qualities. At their core, these paintings are about negotiating the complex propositions of sense of place and belonging which influences the construction of personal identity.

"Nature won't settle down, be passive, or ever fully reveal itself. But, at the same time, it will offer us more than we seek. I can only hope my paintings can do the same.” -Lilian Garcia-Roig
