reynier ferrer (havana, 1979) lives and works in miami. he trained at the san alejandro academy of fine arts in havana from 2000 to 2004.

his paintings are built from thick, layered oil, drips and improvised gesture, with hints of figure and architecture surfacing through the abstraction. the act of painting works for him as a kind of ritual, guided by sensation and the subconscious.
