Andrés Rave, born in Medellín, Colombia, is a mixed-media artist based in Las Vegas, Nevada. His work is rooted in a process-oriented approach that emphasizes simplicity through the use of black lines. Black inks are his primary medium, utilizing both conventional drafting tools and unconventional methods to create lines, shapes, and patterns allowing for both precision and spontaneity.

With years of experience as a Theatrical Props Designer, he has developed a deep repertoire of knowledge in varying materials and techniques, experimenting with these within the framework of his artistic approach; integrating these elements without disrupting the simplicity that lies at the core of the work. By layering paper, he creates depth and rhythm, continually reworking the design, often bringing forth recognizable shapes. These elements sometimes emerge from his own photographic references of his travels and inspirations, but they also invite the viewer to find their own narrative within the work, allowing the work to evolve in meaning.

Through this method, he explores how simple black lines can transform into intricate, multi-layered, harmonious compositions, inviting the viewer to find the richness in even the most fundamental of forms in a visually engaging experience.
