Andres San Millan
He is a Basque-born artist living and working in the Hudson Valley since 1983. His work straddles a number of disciplines in the visual and performing arts. Of special interest to him is public and community-based art as well as the work with and for children. He has drawn/painted over 2100 portraits. He’s also known for his large driftwood sculptures and parade floats. On stage, he’s worked as a designer, actor, director, choreographer, and dancer.
In "El Trastero" Andres works with a number of objects in a darkened room that allows him to explore the workings of the mind. “I am looking at our apparent need for turning the physical world into meaning as well as our unchallenged tendency for fulfilling the mandates of Conditioning.”
