""The four large-scale canvases that constitute the core of ' Misfits' maintain the fundamental elements of the artist's visual lexicon while radically reconfiguring compositional structure and spatial organization. These works advance a design freedom that is simultaneously forceful and controlled, achieving a balance between expressive intensity and formal restraint. As such, the series marks a decisive moment in Nuñez artistic evolution and possibly an initial step toward a more profound and transformative reorientation of his practice.""
"One of the best elements of Nuñez's work is the playfulness and the ability to take a small idea and make it large. He let's his imagination, and a bit of childlike wonder, become gigantic. The gallery notes that the artist explores "everyday life through a lens of irony, freedom, and quiet rebellion," but I think almost more importantly is the ability to make the possibilty of art seem larger than life."
Misfits presents new paintings and drawings by Daniel Núñez that scale small ideas into large, exuberant works. The works combine playfulness and childlike wonder with disciplined execution and formal restraint. Four large-scale canvases retain the artist's visual language while radically reconfiguring composition and spatial organization, achieving design freedom that is both forceful and controlled. The series signals a decisive moment in artistic evolution and gestures toward a potential transformative reorientation of practice. The exhibition juxtaposes youthful energy and matured vision and invites reconsideration of the purpose and possibilities of painting.
