Momento Pacífico

Born in Puebla, Mexico
Lives and works in Puebla, Mexico

Carlos Oviedo’s work revolves around his concern for various themes, the human being’s interior and figure, the use of figurative and academic language. He produces works of classical figurative cut, of “Pop art” and the conclusions derived from the artist’s analysis of his perspective on beauty, quantum physics, including iconography and contemporary elements, acquiring form from his own imagination and contemplation.
His work has been accepted by several museums in Mexico such as the Museum of Art of Queretaro, Museum of the Benemérita Universidad Autónoma of Puebla on two occasions, Metropolitan Museum of Monterrey, Museum of the City of Cuernavaca, Museum of the Universidad Popular Autónoma of Puebla, Museum of Art San Pedro in Puebla, Museum La Tallera Siqueiros in Cuernavaca, and Museum of Viceroyalty Art in Puebla.
International art fairs in different countries such as CONTEXT, ART MIAMI, FIA Caracas, LA Art show, Shanghai Art Fair, Affordable Art Fair Mexico, Arteaméricas in Miami.
Continuously participating in public and private auctions such as: SACA (Society Advancement of Contemporary Art) and Morton Meyerson Symphony Center, MOMA Live auction, and Fundación MOMA Live auction in Dallas, and Fundación comamos y crezcamos con alegría A.C. in Puebla.
Graphic Design at the Universidad de las Américas Puebla (UDLAP), he did not finish his degree as his passion for painting led him to focus completely on his artistic development. From an early age, he showed an inclination for the visual arts, participating in various workshops and taking private lessons with renowned teachers from Puebla, such as Faustino Salazar and his wife Rosa.
