Luis’s sculptures of humans and animals are both whimsical and edgy. He rarely uses molds. Often, each piece is unique although his obsession with certain themes doesn’t cease. The animals he creates are known by all, but have some surprising details like shoes, or hands in place of paws or hooves. Actually, they are human beasts. His characters are sensual and mythical; mermaids, angels and dancers. They are always in natural and relaxed poses, sometimes anonymous and fragmented, always alluring and thought provoking. They often go united with poetry written or “tattooed” over their skin. Perhaps suggesting that we each carry a poem, a code that speaks of our lives. Luis’s sculptures may seem fragile or amusing, but they are never classical or conservative. They are as complex and contrasting as the artist himself.
