La Luz de Jesus Gallery is thrilled to present “Syndrome” a solo exhibition by Self-Taught Artist Daniel Martin Diaz.  In “Syndrome” Daniel Martin Diaz examines the mysteries of scientific diagrams, secrets of symbols, and their everlasting effect on our psyche. The inspiration for this new body of work comes from the mysteries of consciousness, self-aware systems, philosophy, cellular automata, AI, sacred geometry, time travel, and mystical behaviors at atomic and subatomic levels.

In recent years, Diaz became immersed in scientific and philosophical theories. In particular, he became obsessed with scientific diagrams, which explain ideas and properties through drawings. Although these rudimentary drawings were without any leanings toward aesthetics, he found them beautiful, though that is not their intention. He was inspired to use the simplicity of drawing to create his interpretations of the concepts of consciousness and other theories on a scientific, philosophical, and spiritual level. All of the projects begin as drawings, which have a beauty and intimacy that paintings cannot capture. Graphite’s allure comes from its subtle lines and the quickness in which one can capture an idea.

Based in Tucson, Arizona, Daniel Martin Diaz is a fine artist with an insatiable curiosity to explore the mysteries of life and science. His work has been exhibited worldwide and has been published in LA Times, NY Times, Juxtapoz, High Fructose, and Low Rider Magazine, and four personal art books. Diaz has designed artwork for large public art projects in the US and has won many awards such as a gold and platinum record designed for Atlantic Records.
