Hyperrealist artist Eliecer Rodríguez paints with striking detail to address environmental degradation. His art juxtaposes everyday objects, like plastic bags, with natural elements such as marine life, emphasizing the consequences of consumerism. Rodríguez’s paintings transform mundane items into symbols of ecological crises, challenging viewers to reflect on the impact of modern life on the environment and Costa Rica wildlife.
His collaboration with renowned Cuban artist Tomás Sánchez has significantly influenced his technical and conceptual approach. Rodríguez’s deep connection to Costa Rica’s marine environment infuses his work, making it a poignant call to reconsider our relationship with nature and the often-overlooked effects of consumer culture.
In this painting, two discarded red high-heeled shoes lie in the foreground, contrasting against the natural landscape of grass stretching toward a distant, water-lined horizon with faint mountains. The juxtaposition of the abandoned shoes with the serene environment evokes a sense of displacement, perhaps commenting on the intrusion of consumerism into Costa Rica wildlife.
