The release Louis De Guzman first vinyl sculpture for the first time in USA at COMPLEX Con 2018 with Louis De Guzman signature geometric abstraction tied to pop culture and seeing this in person “ELEVATE” shocked us that it was made out of vinyl and not resin. NOW Louis De Guzman is back with a new edition! a new colourway of his ELEVATE Vinyl Sculpture this Friday great news for collectors who missed out on the OG edition.

De Guzman’s geometric abstraction style often blends together images and stories that evoke his family’s immigrant struggle, and his own experience as a second-generation Filipino American.
Over the last decade De Guzman has proved himself as a prominent designer and creative director. De Guzman has been able to blend both traditional and experimental techniques in his work, which has attracted attention from corporate clients and culturally relevant figures alike.

Artist Statement
“The idea, concept of sculpture and abstract dimensional form has always been on the
agenda. To evolve my personal body of work from 2 dimensional intricate line work and
pattern sequenced shapes into something more tangible that my audience can examine and
study. I want the viewer to be able to view it from all angles and see every little detail. I’m
trying to bring something unfamiliar to a familiar space and ultimately evoke emotion and
personal attachment.”
