“Zayas’ representations are alive, liquid, and rushing. He doesn’t delicately apply his color so much as lather it on with a paint knife; the ridges and thick lines are a lush, churning carpet of impasto. Zayas is an artist who embraces the chaotic, letting his unruly talent take him wherever it leads while embracing a variety of inspirations both on the ground and in the heavens—his captivating sculptures reveal aspects of the man behind the artist better than any painting could.”

“The Mississippi has Mark Twain. The LA River has Victor Hugo Zayas. Where we might look at Los Angeles as a visual Armageddon, Zayas finds beauty and coherence.”
