I was born in San Juan Comalapa, Chimaltenango, in 1970. I am a self-taught visual artist and have explored various techniques, including oil painting, watercolor, acrylic, engraving, and woodcut, among others.
To date, I have received 16 national awards. The first was in 2000, granted by the Ministry of Culture and Sports at the National Watercolor Salon in the “Free Creativity” category. Later, in 2005, I received an award at the National Arturo Martínez Contest in Quetzaltenango. These recognitions continued, culminating in the most recent award this year at the National Painting Contest held in Salamá, Baja Verapaz.
Internationally, my work has been exhibited at the Watercolor Biennial in Hanoi, Vietnam; the II Watercolor Biennial in Singapore; and the Fourth Watercolor Biennial in Cochabamba, Bolivia.
Paulino Pichiyá Culajay Arts
See all Paulino Pichiyá Culajay artsI feel a profound passion for visual art. Over time, I have explored various techniques, including oil, acrylic, watercolor, and more recently, sculpture.
In my works, I focus on themes of Mother Nature and the environment, specifically the damage that forces birds to migrate due to habitat destruction, excessive logging, forest fires, river and lake pollution, and more.
This concern is embodied in my series titled Cascade of Trills, which represents birds in flight or movement. I paint them with swirling motifs around their beaks, symbolizing their cries for a place to live.
