Rafael Torres Correa.

French painter born in Cuba in 1962, educated in La Havana. In 1997 he travels to France where he works and continues with his training. In 2001 he settles in Mexico and joins the workshop of contemporary art \"La Polilla\" in Guadalajara, participating in various plastic projects for dance and theater shows.
In Mexico he collaborates with prominent painters including Jose Luís Malo, Rafael Sáenz, Eduardo Mejorada and the sculptor Francisco Javier Ramírez Malo.
He also participates in engraving workshops together with the painter Margarita Pointelin. In 2003 he studies Washi Zoo Kei, together with the Salvadorian artist Adis Soriano.
In September 2005 he moves to Saragossa, Spain, where he moves into working on abstraction that is more lyrical than conceptual, playing with both emptiness and abundance in his canvas; leading a personal interpretation of informal landscapes in which he tries to capture the constant flows between nature and his body.
He establishes his workshop in French Guiana between 2009 and 2012, where he continues his research on the subject and interpretation of landscape as an identity-forming element.
This project is supported by the Ministry of French Culture, the Guiana region, the cities of Cayenne and Kourou, as well as by the CNES (National Center for Space Studies from its abbreviation in Spanish).
He currently lives in Washington, D.C.

His works have been exposed in different galleries and museums of Cuba, France, Mexico, USA and Spain.
