Pichardo isn't just an artist; he's a child with many years.

Enrique Pichardo Egea was born in Mexico City on April 17, 1973, where he currently lives and works. He displayed a keen interest in creation from an early age, shaping his inner world through simple artistic expressions that brought him joy.

He spent his formative years exploring different paths before returning to his childhood passion. Enrolling in the prestigious National School of Painting, Sculpture, and Printmaking, "La Esmeralda," in Mexico City, he refused to be constrained by perceived rules and bureaucracy, opting to recapture the creative innocence of his youth.

Today, the 8-year-old child within Pichardo paints with all his personality, body, mind, and soul, authentically expressing his obsessive and compulsive musical style. He represents a contemporary embodiment of Mexican expressionism, internationally celebrated for its distinctive inspirations from transformed everyday life to vibrant symbolism.

His work has been exhibited in major museums in Mexico City and around the world, captivating collectors globally. Joy and delight pervade his works, offering viewers the originality of visual art, conveying emotions that only pictorially, not linguistically, can express.

Pichardo's primarily figurative works feature magical, often whimsical figures, vibrant color tones, pictorial signs, biomorphic images, and geometric shapes, showcasing the influence of great European modern artists.

A celebration of life, an expression of jubilation, his work exudes color and joy, embodying the conviction of returning to childhood and its initial traces. There's an indescribable bond between artist, artwork, and a charismatic, captivating personality, conceived solely to celebrate the joy of being alive.
