For the fifth episode of the artist encounters podcast I’m thrilled to share my talk with painter Diego Palacios! We recorded the conversation in the winter of 2023 at his studio in Leipzig, Germany.
Born in Chile in 1983, Diego Palacios began his painting practice in 2012. He has worked within the art scenes of Chile, France, and Germany — where he currently lives.
Fascinated by the styles of old masters like Rembrandt and Rubens, Palacios blends the ancient with the contemporary in his paintings. While his use of light evokes the past, his motifs create a bridge to the present. A flickering, almost digital-like glow envelops the people and objects in his works, further reinforcing their contemporary feel.
Check out Diego’s website (https://www.diegoispainting.com) and his Instagram @ livson to see his work and stay updated with current projects.
