The Cuban painter is becoming more and more popular on social media thanks to his own style in which the hyperrealistic technique is as invisible as the result is surprising.
Since living and working in Miami, 28-year-old artist Darian Rodríguez Mederos has become one of the most popular painters on social media.
About Darian Mederos' beginnings
He began to stand out in his early years at the Leopoldo Romañach art school in his native Cuba, and later spent the last two years at the San Alejandro school in Havana.
Darian Mederos' success on social media
Rare is the art account on Twitter or Instagram that hasn't published one of his paintings to the surprise of his followers. And no wonder: the artist adds to his hyperrealistic paintings an element so common that it seems like a surrealist verse, turning the work into a slight deformation of what he was most afraid of painting: faces.
About Darian Mederos' technique
Mederos likes to play with light and, above all, to put technique at the service of light. Easily recognizable are his works in which he seems to have placed a bubble wrap film in front of the viewer's eyes, although he has also played with reflections in water or even maxi-pointillism.
