Horacio Cardozo

Horacio Cardozo was born in Argentina, where he studied Architecture and Design at Buenos Aires University and Philosophy at Del Salvador University. His drawing skills and his admiration for fine arts, especially those of the Renaissance period, led him to explore a career in painting, since 1987.

Horacio's oil paintings display a touch of surrealism and express philosophical ideas and concepts as well as mythical themes. His eagerness to understand the inherent relationship between human nature, the universal order and the underlying reality leads him to create images that attempt to explain that which defies reason.

His nude and semi-nude series are set in a mystic aura and tinted with a subtle beauty.

Horacio has recently been living in Auckland, New Zealand where he works as a Graphic Artist and continues to develop his artistic career.
