Fragility, waves, turbulence, transparencies, reflections, are unique visual sensations, of one of the natural spectacles that produce the most uneasiness when contemplating the waves on the lake water, on one side the capricious curls of sunset lights are reflected on them, while that of the other, the green reflections of the bushes also pose like a universe in pulsating movement without respite. At this stage of his production of the Appearances series, William has been interested in these images that recall lake views. It is part of his itinerary of drip action paints and folds, with the characteristic of integrating this time, industrial white paint to acrylic paint and combining them with synthetic resin, in order to produce distensions and create crackling effects on the surface. To make this piece he previously visualizes the waves, imagining them over and over again, executing many horizontal and lateral folds and unfolds; however, the autonomy with which the fluidity of the painting is directed is even more decisive, because this is what ultimately produces the astonishing swirling waves at each end of the painting.

William Marquina was born in Mérida, Venezuela. Attracted by the works of great masters such as Picasso and Leonardo, at the age of 11 he participated in an outdoor Sunday painting workshop. After graduating in visual arts from the Universidad de Los Andes, he studied a master's degree in philosophy, followed by an unfinished doctorate, and was a short-term visual arts professor at the same university. From now on, William will pursue his passion for art by experimenting with different themes, techniques, styles and media. Disappointed by the unstable situation in his country, he emigrated to the city of Quito in 2019 where he currently lives and produces his works in the Oskan-huera painting studio, cloistered during the pandemic of 2020 and 2021, he will insist on his series Perceptions William's production has been experimentally versatile and challenges us with series characterized by the desire to search, study and complement the archaic and contemporary. His series are notable: Brillo, Picasso Copy, Matisse Copy, Da Vinci Copy and Aperceptions. In the latter, he highlights us in painting, the subjective complexity in the world of perceptions. In 2023 he exhibited his individual retrospective "Imbrications in painting" in the city of Quito; the International Painting exhibition at Casal Català Quito, 2021 and "Exhibition of Ecuadorian Painting" at the Mayor's Office of Quito, 2019. Other important individuals were: "Cartographies of the Terrestrial and Transterranean", Merida 2012; "Care. Path and Limit", 2007 and "Essences", 2007. Awarded the First Prize of Arts for University Students, in 2001.
