Pablo Márquez Galeria, Todos Santos Baja California, the story.

From the gallery in Todos Santos, Baja California, Mexico  artworks  live  in Private Collections  in the following cities and countries: London, Paris, Denmark, Rome Italy, Los Angeles, Palo Alto, Florida, Washington D.C, Texas, Colorado, New York, Minnesota, Michigan, Mexico City, Guadalajara, Oregon, Los Cabos, Boston, Seattle, Vancouver Canada, etc.

I am an explorer of nature, of the desert, and the ocean,  exploration for me is more than traveling, it is finding, it is about keeping an eye  on the health of life  of our land and oceans.  Checking to see that everything in nature is working  and connected and whole, that everything is healthy.

If you think about it  is the same with us human beings because we are nature too.  

For me, experiencing and documenting the  beauty of life as it is happening is what  exploring Baja California deserts and oceans is all about.  Traveling in Baja California,  one of the most biodiverse oceans in the world, has been a process of discovery, awareness transformation and self discovery   Pablo Marquez.

 ----------

Pablo Marquez was born in Mexico City, Lived half of his life in the United States studying and working..  In NY at the United Nations as a foreign correspondent for Mexican media in the early 90's. Explorer of the earth, of what's hidden.

Traveling, moving from here to there to reveal the invisible, the magic of life, the unknown,space and time into self discovery.  His artistic and environmental practice spans a range of media: photography, video, documentary, art installations and books, centers  on the integration of exploration in remote  natural landscape environments, conservation, ephemerality, impermanence.

His work has been exhibited in solo and group exhibitions nationally and internationally including: Paul Fisher Gallery Miami, The Southern Nevada Museum of Fine Arts, European Modern Art Museum of Barcelona, Galata Museo del Mare, Genova Italy. His works are included in the collection of The Southern Nevada Museum of Fine Arts, and they have been featured in publications including The Circle of Arts Foundation, Lyon France,  Effecto Arte magazine, Rome Italy. 

 Pablo is an artist dedicated to fine art photography for more than 30 years, and over time he has been committed to the human spirit in connection with Nature.

He works on his own project and in Private Commissions, traveling through different countries and continents.  He was assigned to the United Nations in New York in 1989 as a foreign correspondent for Mexican media.  Studied filmmaking at SDSU in California and Howard University in Washington DC with the highly decorated independent filmmaker Haile Gerima, and Mexican filmmaker Paul Leduc.

He made his first photographs of nature at a very young age and like everything important in life, it was love at first sight.  Young made his first trip to India and later published a book.  His range of work covers different cultures, always focused and committed to the human spirit and nature..

Sustainability.

People care for the things they value.

 Our emotional response to nature and life are important to keep them sustainable.

At the gallery in Todos Santos I want to present and create art  to last and is loved..

When I explore a natural environment I want to do everything I can to preserve it, to last.. When impermanence is the rule of life in the natural world, photography helps me preserve what my eyes find

respecting it. All the materials we use  are sustainable.

The paradox is that photography with its quality of documenting  the impermanent creation of nature  is helping me preserve its creation. 

All prints are made with Canson® Infinity  that exceeds the ISO 9706 museum grade standard and that has been developed to meet galleries and museum's longevity requirements. Canson® has submitted the Digital Fine Art & Photo range to the world's leading independent print permanence testing laboratory, Wilhelm Imaging Research (WIR) for longevity testing on the Canson® Infinity range..We have complete confidence that prints produced  will last for generations, when displayed under the conditions outlined.  125 years framed with UV filter glass.

 The wood of our frames come from Cultivated forests that play an important economic and ecological role. Glass  used is Museum glass 99% UV protection or Art Glass 70 UV protection.

ABOUT  Desert SAND / ARENA, Impermnent, Ephemerl Works  2018-2024 Statement

                 I am an explorer of nature. For some time now the sand  works have been sparking curiosity from people that visit the Gallery in Todos Santos, Baja California Mexico.. Most people think the medium is  ink or charcoal, although the medium is photography. I like that the works don't look like photographs however that was never my intention. I respect the way they are.  Ephemeral, impermanent sand forms that disappear after a few minutes by wind or water. From the beginning I have been learning everything from the work. I have more questions than answers.   The perception of people is subjective, different  people see different forms depending who is looking.  My process is exploration; traveling in Baja California to unknown places to me that I have never been before. Not knowing what I will find.  From the beginning, I felt I was following my curiosity,  first with whale migration in Baja California, then  with sand forms.  So this is about respecting the way nature is when found, it is about minimal intervention and observation in every way.  We are part of nature, not separated. To me, the mystery of the work is the foundation.

The works are a representation of Ephemeral and timeless sand forms of nature .

I am following a personal act of conscious freedom, when I undertake the journey to remote nature in Baja California where  the focus of the work is on my own awareness in union with the impermanent nature discovered.

These natural impermanent forms created by nature become a mystery to be solved, a stimulus for the imagination.  Photography helps me document and record what my eyes find in my explorations in mountains, desert dunes and ocean beaches.  Later back in Todos Santos studio  I selected them and printed them respecting everything about them.  I study them  for a long time, to find out what I can learn from the work of nature itself. Then perception can be negotiated with audience participation  in terms of scale/distance/forms etc.. To me the medium of photography blends perfectly with recording of impermanence and ephemerality of nature.

In my own discovery of the work there is a new way of seeing, feeling and understanding nature, an attempt on my part to obtain new knowledge about the natural world and myself, a surprise to see a new language emerging, as if the universe was pushing me forward into the unknown to have a new connection to the ultimate reality.

Going back to nature for work, means a life of freedom and emancipation without fear or identity. Not being free is the cause of all conflicts in this world.

In my own process, traveling and exploring in remote places is a means to bring consciousness, involvement and the need for change into new possibilities.

When I go to explore these remote natural places far from everything I discover and capture worlds that speak to my soul in a timeless and ephemeral way. I have to get closer, I take risks to get there. What I capture is not an act but alignment a union with everything, so that later the audience can solve it, feel it and imagine it in pure Satisfaction of Being.and feeling alive.

BAJA CALIFORNIA LANDSCAPES, 2017-2022 works Statement

JOURNEY into TRANSFORMATION.

"Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better. Journey into the mystery of the earth."

                                                                      Albert Einstein.

Align yourself with the present moment, with now, into consciousness.

In 2017, I went on a Journey to Baja California, one morning I experienced a life changing epiphany. So I followed it. I drove up north through places I had never been. During the Journey something happened- an inner transformation. I felt myself in union with everything around me,  as being non-existent, one with everything and without ego or self, a bliss.  As I kept driving, after a few days, I slowly came to realize on an intuition and perception, that I had come to that quiet place where the mind stops its normal activity, and one is in a state of consciousness all the time.  Where one is in alignment with the present moment and there is no fear whatsoever. Honoring the present moment became a joy.

At the same time I started creating the images you see here.  It was something very simple, yet something in me had changed. 

There I came to be between the dialectic of reason and intuition.  I became aware of the cosmos and my unity with all.  I was true to the moment, true to life, to myself, and for some reason, there was no past.  Without fear I had all this energy to be and to do and used this to seek the truth about myself.

 There and then I came to embrace a comfortable unknown inner space.  I was alone in the middle of nowhere.  I felt love in every cell of my being. 

With that freedom I made these photographs.  Knowing myself at the deepest level, but selfless,  very concentrated on the moment, but allowing it to happen.  Without knowing how I was making it.   The beauty was that the universe was assisting me and I was trusting and open.

The game is on...Create your future from the unknown...from your Essence. What matters is Consciousness.

It is always Now, what we truly have is this moment.

Life becomes beautiful only when you are willing to give your all.

Pablo Márquez.   Baja California  2017.
