Colombia
Magical Costumbrismo
Master Bautizta is a painting wizard, a conjurer of memory who has managed to transform the cultural richness of our nation into a symphony of colors, shapes, and textures. His "Magical Costumbrismo" is an artistic movement that goes beyond mere visual representation to become a portal that allows us to delve into the very essence of our identity.
The master proposes magical costumbrismo as a way of articulating the portrait of historical practices and materialities that make up the Colombian territory, with the knowledge, cosmologies, and intangible aspects that give symbolic strength to the cultural richness of our country. Likewise, by uniting the delicacy and cleanliness of his work with the rigor and respect that deep research of the portrayed subject requires, recognizing the strength and importance that the symbolic field has always had in cultural construction.
In every stroke of his work, we can feel the heartbeat of our history, the strength of our traditions, and the joy of our being. Master Bautizta has managed to create a universe of beauty and poetry that speaks to us of our diversity, the multiplicity of our roots, and the richness of our customs. His work is a treasure that we must preserve as a legacy for future generations, a jewel that allows us to reconnect with our essence and celebrate the cultural richness that defines us as Colombians.

Heritages
El muralismo del maestro Bautizta es una ventana abierta a la riqueza cultural de Colombia, un homenaje a la memoria colectiva, al patrimonio cultural que se transmite de generación en generación. Su obra es un registro de la identidad de un país que se resiste a perder su esencia en medio de un mundo globalizado de identidades desdibujadas. Es un encanto por la cultura popular, del folclor, de las historias que se tejen en las calles y carreteras, y que nos cuentan y habitan en la cotidianidad. El muralismo es una forma de hacer presente la memoria y de reconstruir el pasado, que nos permite entender un presente que sigue vibrando con la diversidad y la riqueza cultural de Colombia.
