Collection: Ramon Aguirre – Wither

Dead Flowers, decaying forms and the elegance of entropy. 

I paint things that I’m drawn to visually — withering flowers, distorted figures, strange landscapes, and forms that feel worn, fragile, or in the process of changing. I’m interested in the tension between beauty and discomfort, and in how decay or damage can sometimes make something feel more alive or human.

A lot of the imagery develops intuitively while I work. I usually begin with a rough sketch or shape rather than a fully planned image. For me, painting is less about illustrating a specific idea and more about following a feeling or atmosphere until the piece becomes emotionally convincing. Much of the work comes from getting lost in the act of painting itself.

Ultimately, I paint because I enjoy building images and discovering unexpected relationships within them. The subjects simply reflect the kinds of forms and environments I find compelling, unsettling, and strangely beautiful.
