Biography - Jesus Zapata

I grew up in the Northern Caribbean Colombian coast in which each day greets one with an ocean view and a beautiful blue sky. I have been passionate about Physics and Painting since I was a teenager. I pursued an established career, as a physicist, and worked for many years at the University sharing my passion for Physics. I immigrated to United States, and began the journey of painting, as a second career.

Painting brings a transcendental emotion of looking for the truth in nature. I am attempting to paint the invisible forces of nature. My motifs are: Conservation of nature, social injustice and inner self. Currently, I am exploring the freedom of Abstract Expressionism. For me, painting is an analogic language to express emotions, feelings and to search for ultimate truths of nature.

We are singularities in this vast universe making marks in the space that eventually will be erased by time.
