Ermilo Espinosa has sought, since his beginnings, mastery of the brush and deep communication with the viewer: "The painting I seek lives with one foot in the present and another in timelessness, taking one step in the local and another in the universal. It responds to social and political life, portrays the current and ephemeral reality, but also seeks a poetry that delves into the innermost human emotions and conditions that transcend time and geography. It must be brutal and beautiful, cruel and hopeful".
