Tremols, Andres

Andres Tremols is a Washington, DC based sculptor, painter and printmaker. Tremols was trained at the Corcoran School of Art & Design. Selected museum and corporate collections include: The World Bank (DC), American Airlines (Miami), The Washington Post Company (DC), Centro de Arte Leon (Nicaragua). This new series of silkscreen prints were developed at the International Hand Print Workshop in Alexandria with Dennis O'Neil (professor at the Corcoran School of Art and Design). The prints include very experimental silkscreen techniques using multiple-relief layering and iridescent pigments. They integrate the elements of liquidity, transparency and reflection, found in Tremol’s environmentally driven glass castings. Tremol’s prints are large, colorful, organic shapes suspended in crisp white negative space. Inspired and produced from his glass sculptures, which are made by layering up to 12 slices of glass interspersed with glass frit drawings. The layers are fired for hours using a precise mathematical recipe. Lastly, buffed with a diamond tip saw. The results are thick, colorful and translucent pieces mounted in self-designed steel stands. He photographs one layer of the glass in super high resolution and digitally enhances the color. His work is collected by American Airlines in Miami, FL, The Washington Post Company in Washington, D.C., Centro de Arte Leon in Nicaragua and other public and private collectors. His work was recently exhibited at the Wichita Falls Museum of Art in Houston as part of a traveling show of Washington-based artists. He has gallery representation in Miami.
