Painter Horacio Quiroz lives in Mexico City. While preparing for his first solo art show “Polarities” at Booth Gallery in New York, he described his thoughts on being a self taught artist and how being more internationally recognized has helped his artwork grow. Not exactly or deliberately painting queer art, he looks back on his past as an inspiration to what he paints today. Horacio specializes in oil painting and continues to grow quickly in popularity and skill. 

We had our hearts set on Horacio Quiroz for some time while we were still putting this project together back in SF. We were thrilled that he was the first artist from Mexico who agreed to be a part of our series and couldn’t be blessed to know him further as a person. At first glance looking at his artwork, the audience is left wondering what sort of mind produces such incredible yet complex work. We decided to focus his episode on how his style was influenced by discovering his sexuality at a young age, and prepping for his first solo show in New York.  Horacio’s deep thoughtful insights about himself was exactly what we were looking for and couldn’t be more thankful to find not only an incredibly talented artist but also one who is humble and willing to share a deeper side to themselves. Enjoy Episode 4!

We’re excited to bring one of our dearest friends into this second episode! Justin has been a huge supporter of this series and is our music supervisor for all the great music you’ll hear in each episode! Having an infectious personality that is equally colorful to the many talents he has, our primary focus for his episode was to center it around the multiple projects he is consistently doing and how that shapes his life as an artist. While exploring various avenues of creativity he struggles most with keeping on top of multiple projects, but in the long run has found it to fit perfectly to his energetic personality. We hope Justin’s episode will help others realize there is an ebb and flow to the time that you put into your work, and with multiple projects it’s okay for them not to all be accomplished at once. Contact information and current projects of Citizen Ten are found below, thanks for watching!
