Caos y belleza en la fauna americana.
La palabra “Ramé” es de origen balinés, significa caos y belleza simultánea.
La exposición muestra una serie de ilustraciones, realizadas de 2013 a 2019 por Bryan Gallardo en diversas técnicas. Esta compilación nace de la experimentación de diversos estilos expresionistas que buscan retratar el dinamismo, la fluidez y otros tantos valores que el autor encuentra inspirado en la anatomía de los animales.
La dirección de los trazos no es azarosa, cada línea y pincelada busca resaltar la individualidad de las especies. El resultado es una dualidad, un juego entre realismo y abstracción fruto de la interacción de colores y formas, es así como cada retrato se vuelva único.

Chaos and beauty of the American fauna.
Ramé is a Balinese word that both means chaos and beauty.
This exhibition shows a series of illustrations made from 2013 to 2019 by Bryan Gallardo in various techniques, ranging from traditional media such as engraving, silkscreen and watercolor to digital resources. This compilation is born from the experimentation of diverse expressionist styles that seek to portray the dynamism, the fluidity and other values that the author finds in the anatomy of our American wildlife.
The direction of the strokes is not random, each line and brushstroke has a purpose, and each detail highlights the individuality of the species. The result is a duality, a persistent dialogue between realism and abstraction, complexity and simplicity, geometry and organic lines.
These artworks are the result of the interaction of colors and shapes, portraits that become wildly unique.
