JUANCHO
CRUZ

Beating in the heart of resident EDGIC Artist Juancho Cruz is the rhythm of his Mayan heritage as he portrays through visual appreciation of his original art the wonders and mystical references of his culture.
The fruits of his labour are bearing rewards for success and recognition on a global scale as an #ARTISToftheFutureNOW in the Primary Art Market.
Mastery of his understanding and appreciation of the effect both colour and geometric patterning representing what is known as the “Mysterious Maya” have intrigued the world since their “discovery” in the 1840’s by John Lloyd Stephens and Frederick Catherwood but, in reality much of the culture is not that mysterious when understood.
Contrary to popular imagination, the Maya did not vanish and the descendants of the people who still exist on the same lands their ancestors did and continue to practice, sometimes in a modified form the same rituals that would be recognized by a native of the land one thousand years ago.
Pride in his heritage this great artist defines the logic of the analytical mind as he takes the viewer on a journey of mesmeric proportions that wake up aspects of self long forgotten.
Juancho Cruz has had exhibitions in Antigua Guatemala, Panajachel Sololá; as well the artist has presented his works in various national and international collective collections.
To own an original Juancho Cruz original art is to honour your soul call to value ancient wisdom through the ritual of daily Mayan life.
