Amado uses paint, wood, felt, and light as materials to expand the dimensional constraints of painting. Amado pursues color as the material, a boundless pursuit that concludes with a visual language that embraces sensuality and beauty. The artist states, “ My work endorses the quality of change and how limitless and liberating it can be for an artist. Utilizing forms, images, materials, fashions, and media of human industries; I’m able to produce commentaries on the ambiguities of modern and contemporary culture and the investments that are ultimately made by society.”
