Jamie Martinez

Jamie Martinez creates contemporary paintings via Triangularism; which deconstructs the image by using geometric triangles, and by process of elimination, only its core triangles are left to show its true meaning. Triangles are the lightest and strongest of all geometric shapes and by combining it with a dash of realism, he shows that they are in e... verything and everyone. His paintings are created with soft and medium body oil paints; and a combination of painting knives and brushes. Not one to follow others, Jamie's work clearly expresses his exceptional view at life and art. He has shown all over New York City, Miami and recently in Canada. Jamie Martinez adopts a mixture of tranquil, artistic, scenic, and vanguard photography to display altered sides of everyday things. He believes that even the smallest and most useless objects, seen through a distinct prospective, can give the object life and meaning. By not using conventional methods of shooting and lighting in photography, Jamie tries to explore and test the perimeters of realism. Jamie is also expressing himself through a collection of independent short films that allow him full creative direction and final cut. He has videotaped over 100 of the biggest names in New York fashion week, for local and major Italian networks. Jamie Martinez currently resides in New York City.Read More
