V LAB

Today is the last day to visit "Menú de Garabatos", Leonardo's solo exhibition at VLAB Madrid | Justiniano 9
_____________________

Leonardo's work is a vibrant homage to uninhibited creativity and the wonders of everyday life. The inspiration for this exhibition comes from the cartoons that captivate him and the doodles in his notebooks. Leonardo invites us to see the world through his eyes: a universe where games, utensils, flavors, and the small surprises of daily life are transformed into art. His work reminds us that creativity knows no bounds when life is observed with the curiosity and imagination of an artist of his age.

Following the success of the exhibition at our New York gallery, VLAB is proud to present the third solo exhibition in collaboration with the young visual artist Leonardo entitled “Menú de Garabatos”. On view from December 12th, 2024, through January 18th, 2025, at VLAB.

Leonardo Rodríguez Pastrana Caldarola (Novara, Italy, 2013) is a visual artist known for his great creativity and ability to combine mixed techniques in painting, demonstrating remarkable maturity and versatility at such a young age. Leonardo's work is infused with the uninhibited creativity of childhood and the small wonders of everyday life. He constantly explores new tools and formats. Sprays, Posca markers, and wax crayons are regular allies in his creative process, adding layers of texture and detail that reflect his experimental nature.

Drawing inspiration from everyday elements that surround the artist, Leonardo brings them to life in this exhibition with a touch of fantasy and humor. In his works, he captures ideas that emerge from his daily life and transforms them into something extraordinary; folded canvases that, when unfolded, reveal surprising transformations, dishes of food that fascinate him and are imagined as vibrant, dynamic scenes, origamis and handcrafts that become symbols of the playful creativity defining his artistic universe.
