Description

“The Boy and the Rooster” by Juan Francisco Yoc is a captivating watercolor on paper that captures the poetic essence of the Guatemalan artist’s expressive world.

In this allegorical scene, a young boy wearing a triangular hat gazes at a rooster standing before him, within an atmosphere that feels both rural and subtly circense —a space where innocence meets theatrical symbolism.

Yoc’s characteristic technique —fluid, emotional, and precise— transforms the simplicity of the encounter into a reflection on human sensitivity and the dialogue between nature and imagination. The soft transparency of watercolor, combined with his confident expressive lines, evokes a feeling of quiet tension and lyrical beauty.

As a Fine Art Print, “ The Boy and the Rooster” brings warmth, elegance, and narrative depth to any setting. Perfect for living rooms, studies, or libraries, it is a piece that speaks gently yet powerfully, inviting contemplation and emotional resonance.

      Artist

      Juan Francisco Yoc

      Juan Francisco Yoc was born in Guatemala City in 1960. From 1978 to 1982, he studied art at the National School of Fine Arts (ENAP) in Guatemala. He emigrated to Spain, where he has resided since 1991.

      He has held over forty solo exhibitions in Guatemala, Spain, France, and Italy.

      He has taught drawing at ENAP and has collaborated as an illustrator for various books and publications.

      "He began to find flow in his drawings during his studies at the National School of Fine Arts in the early 1980s, subtly distorting academic balance, and gradually achieved thematic, expressive, and conceptual coherence through the tough battles and experiences of exhibiting in various local galleries.

      Later, starting in 1994 in Madrid, Spain, that inner world and its weight of conflicts led him to rigorously explore various drawing and painting techniques. These allowed him to express himself not only with greater fluidity but also with a heightened awareness of content and formal direction, and consequently, with greater finesse and diversity in his use of the expressive tools of his artistic language.

      There is, without a doubt, a certain paradox in observing the refinement of the conceptual, formal, graphic, and painterly thread that defines what we might call his mature work—a maturity that, in his case, implies the acceptance of his nonconformity rather than a renunciation of his rebellious spirit."
