The Cuadro is a Spanish artist who creates collage artwork that makes use of the outlines of his subjects and various other cutouts to superimpose images. He keeps the colors of each piece fairly uniform for a more modern and minimalist approach to traditional collage artwork -- showing a sense of careful technicality that is often not associated with the practice.
With this, subjects appear to morph into one another with ease, making for a focused piece that makes the viewer want to keep on looking and exposing more meaning than a regular image is capable of. The Cuadro's collage artwork is centered around the theme of fashion, with various pieces combining the details of clothing to create an overarching look.
