José Manuel de Belda Mora
Valencia, Spain, 1979

Valencian artist currently located between Valencia (Spain); Chacabuco (Chile) and Campobasso (Italy) finds his main means of expression in painting, drawing and engraving, having exhibited in Italy, Chile, Germany, Spain and India, where he has also made murals for the reclassification of public space.

Academically, he has a degree in Law and artistically he is trained independently through the study of the History and Theory of Art and practice within the contemporary movement of painting and polished graphics that takes place in Valparaíso (Chile), where José founded the Apolo 77 Gallery .

His work, mainly figurative, forms a style called Unionism capable of containing all the styles of history, themes, temporal and spatial dimensions, and forms a symbolist synthesis that crystallizes as an iconographic manifesto. Observe a minimalist and harmonious order of distributions with a descriptive chromaticism in which the colors occupy the surface assigned to them.

He prefers the representation of local aspects with which he is involved. Main topics addressed are childhood, geological ecology, paleontology, historiography, gregarious behaviors and of course, the love that lies in Everything because Everything is a product of the infinite love of God.
