Juan Ernesto Falcón’s Untitled from his series of the same name is a striking testament to his mastery of hyperrealism, particularly in portraiture and the nude. The meticulous treatment of skin, hair, expressions, and textures transforms what could be a simple representation into an emotionally profound and visceral artwork. The introspective gaze of the figure, captured in a suspended moment, conveys vulnerability and invites reflection on identity, corporeality, and the passage of time. Falcón’s style recalls artists like Chuck Close and Audrey Flack, but his emotional depth goes beyond mere realism, blurring the line between sharp and diffused imagery. The contrast between light and shadow, coupled with the ethereal atmosphere, enhances the subject’s fragility and internal depth. Through this piece, Falcón challenges the boundaries between form and meaning, using technical perfection as a bridge to deeper reflections on humanity and the act of being seen and understood.

Juan Ernesto Falcón’s series Inflexiones (2018) explores identity, memory, and the boundaries of visual representation. Through portraiture, Falcón challenges the perception of what is “visible” and “absent,” using tachism to create intentional marks that disrupt the figure. These interruptions evoke a dialogue between presence and absence, encouraging the viewer to reconsider what is shown and hidden. Falcón’s works reflect themes of alienation and identity suppression, often portraying distorted figures that symbolize the tension faced by those marginalized in their social context. His mastery of oil and acrylic in large formats intensifies the contrast between detailed portraits and abstract interventions, reinforcing the theme of incompleteness and fragmentation. Inflexiones invites reflection on social dynamics, discrimination, and the negotiation between visibility and invisibility.
