This temporary exhibition at the Museo Tiflológico featured the works of artist XavierE, exploring personal variations in color, style, and form. The display included pieces that recycled materials, referenced diverse artists, and showcased abstract, geometric, surrealist, and expressionist styles.
The Museo Tiflológico hosted a temporary exhibition from January 22 to March 14, 2026, titled ‘Una Variante Personal del Color, el Estilo y las Formas,’ by the artist XavierE (Javier Emilio Rodríguez-Garrido). XavierE, born in Panama in 1961 and based in Vigo, is a self-taught artist with a multifaceted practice including painting, ceramics, and sculpture. His work in this exhibition drew from various artistic periods and influences, including abstraction, constructivism, surrealism, realism, and expressionism, with stylistic nods to artists such as Turner, Goya, and Pollock.
The exhibition presented 14 works across series like 'Relieves,' 'Cuerpos femeninos sfumato,' 'Bosques metálicos,' 'Movimiento,' and 'Mosaico de jardín metálico.' These pieces explored the fusion of impressionistic and sfumato techniques with contemporary and recycled materials, transforming color, light, and form. Notably, the 'Mosaico de jardín metálico' series used recycled cans and rings to create chromatic landscapes, while 'Cuerpos femeninos sfumato' reinterpreted the body through color gradations. The exhibition highlighted XavierE's engagement with themes of ephemerality, consumption, and the transformation of everyday waste into extraordinary art, with works dialoguing through color, recycling, and metamorphosis.
