Mauricio Alexander López Aguilar (CHOWY)
Born on November 22, 1994, in the city of Aguilares, San Salvador, El Salvador.
At the age of 12, the young artist began his training at the youth house of the municipal government of Aguilares in San Salvador.
During his first five years of study, he dedicated himself to experimentation, creating works with a surrealist-fantastic tendency that later became a hallmark of his personal style. His interests focused on studying impressionism in terms of style and exploring still life, landscapes, and portraits as themes.
At 17, he held his first solo exhibition at the National Theater of San Salvador, titled “Entre Fantasías” (Among Fantasies). This collection brought together beings and atmospheres depicting magical and awe-inspiring worlds, while addressing themes related to the environment and local customs.
With 13 years of experience as an artist, his works have reached audiences in countries such as the United States, Germany, Spain, Chile, Guatemala, Honduras, Costa Rica, Mexico, France, Thailand, and throughout El Salvador.
