03The artist
DiegoPalencia
A contemporary artist from Guatemala whose work is driven by emotion, movement, memory and the raw beauty of creation itself.
Rooted in both nature and urban culture — a background in graffiti, a deep admiration for landscapes — Diego blends contrasting worlds into one visual language: vibrant colour, abstract expression and the bold spirit of the streets.

05Commissions
Create somethingthat doesn’texist yet.
A commission is the most personal way to own art — a painting made for your space, your story or your brand. It begins with a conversation and ends with a one-of-a-kind canvas, signed and certified.
“The owner wanted something that honored Igor's strength and presence. We chose the blue-amber palette together — it felt regal, unexpected, and completely right.”
Each piece isan invitationto feel somethingreal.
