When asked why he became an artist, Ceron says,
“The question is Why has never existed in my life in respect to art. It was my destiny and I never thought I could be something else but an artist. I think of myself as an artist by birth.”
STATEMENT
Art has always played a very central role in my life. From an early age, I was quite convinced that what I wanted to be was a painter, it sounds such a clich é to say 'it's my dream', but to be honest it really is. I love what I do.
I think my art is like a window to show the good side of the world, is a vehicle for carrying messages of joy and the celebration of life. I use strong and vibrant colors to wake up the child that lives in every spectator.
Match the World through the eyes of a child is to see the essence and enjoy every instant of life. To grow and forget about those moments that would fill us up with happiness is what makes our souls old and what hinders our life.
As an artist and a person, acting with senses and feelings, I would say that art works speak more than words. I let my creations talk about themselves. They alone can show the ways and things which inspire and give me a fillip to do the works.
The roots of my inspiration can be found in the colors of my native country Colombia and ancient cultures of South America with all the graphics and symbols of the Precolombian culture. Also greatest artists has influenced in my work like Pablo Picasso, Joan Miro, Gustav Klim, Wassily Kandinsky, with another cultural movements like the pop art, the cubism, the urban art and the comics.
I am trying to unite all this multicultural and ethnical diversity in my works, using symbols and other specificities, reconstituting them through my vision and mixing with my memories and my sources of inspiration like the love, the music, the nature, the woman, the earth and the dreams.
I am honored by those of you who have taken the time to know me and my work. For those of you who truly collect my work, I thank you for looking beyond the physical and for making connections within and beyond yourselves.
