Brief Media Info

Bio:
Andres is a San Francisco-based artist. His artwork can span over 100,000 feet, achievable only during low tide. With tight time constraints and big goals, Andres is posed with the question: ‘How does one create from within that which one is creating?’ Exploring this concept of self-creation has brought Andres to investigate natural and human-devised systems of structure and growth. His artworks do not last long- within minutes of finishing a piece, and often while still in progress, the returning tide begins resetting the canvas. This provides an opportunity to reflect upon the nature of impermanence, serving as a reminder that the act of joyous creation is its own reward. His ultimate desire with displaying the artwork is to bring a sense of wonder and immediacy to the viewer. Andres has been featured by NBC Evening News, Al Jazeera, CCTV, The Today Show, BBC, CNN, the Discovery Channel, and numerous T.V. programs and periodicals globally. His artwork has appeared on beaches in the US and internationally, from France to Bermuda, with his primary canvas being the Northern California coastline. He leads work teams in group art creations and conducts workshops in creating his large-scale art. If you have a beautiful beach where his art could happen, he would love to learn of it.
