Oso Parado
Born in Chiconcuac Mexico is half native american, whose work delves into the relationship between technology and the natural world. His art reflects a deep belief in a universal energy that connects all things, from the smallest particles to the vast complexity of life. Through his creations, Oso Parado explores the interconnectedness of existence, revealing how every element is bound together.My work is about aligning the human body and spirit with the cosmos, using Earth as the platform where art and nature intertwine. Through this connection, I seek to create an awareness of the vastness of space and our place within it. Land art becomes a form of spiritual ecology, inviting us to see ourselves as part of a larger, living system, where creativity and the environment converge to reveal our role in the balance and beauty of the universe
Often incorporating technology and new technologies , his work reflects a fascination with how these innovations intersect with and influence nature by doi. By bridging the digital and physical realms, Oso Parado seeks to uncover the hidden connections that shape our world.
In my work, I embrace the unpredictability of nature, surrendering control and allowing entropy to guide the creative process. I see myself as a collaborator with nature, not as a director but as a participant. By cultivating the circumstances—the artistic compost—I set the stage for the natural world to infuse its own forces into the art. This approach reflects a biographical dialogue, where I step back and let the elements shape the outcome, revealing that true creativity arises not from control, but from a deep connection and surrender to the flow of life itself.
This impulse arises from creating art that reflects the boundless reality we are. It transcends the literal grid, and with that creation comes time dilation—a stretching of moments where the infinite and the present intertwine, offering a glimpse beyond the constraints of time and perception
