WINTER PARK, Fla. – The Gallery of Interlachen welcomed the Panamanian Photographer Javier Gomez in the artfully delicious evening of April 3.
Gomez exposed his collection named: “Sensual Nature” and talked with the audience about his difficulties of leaving his country trying to find better opportunities on Art.
“It was a lot of work to put all of my paints together and bring them from New York,” said Gomez. “But it was worth it to see my work done and celebrate that with friends.”
Gomez was born in Panama and is currently residing in NYC. After living in Costa Rica and Miami he studied photography at NYU. It is in this collection that he shows New York throughout his paints.
“You don’t have to be a New Yorker to understand that Javier truly connects people with the nature of the big city,” said Aymee Vasquez, an Art director in Miami. “Through his paints, you can see a New York that you can only feel if you are from there.”
The crowd got together to listen to Gomez’s expectations for his future carrier and also to understand how practical it was for him to start his collection just by printing the pictures through his MAC computer.
“He taught us a lesson, just by showing that you can go as far as you deeply want in your carrier,” said Angelo Cleber from Orlando. “His passion for the city and the nature reflects what every New Yorker wants the world to understand.”
Gomez finished his speech, let everybody look at his paints and had a quick dinner for a few individuals invited for business talk.
