From an early age, Jorge Bengio showed a natural inclination for painting, beginning his artistic path at the age of five. His childhood, shaped by a vivid imagination, laid the foundation for creativity focused on exploring the human experience.

​

Though his training has been varied and largely self-taught, Bengio has developed a distinct voice through free experimentation with technique. He sees art as an ongoing journey, where technique serves as expression rather than defines it.

​

His work, centered on the gaze as both symbol and tool, reflects a deep investigation of the intimate and the human. For him, painting is about digging down to what's real; each piece confronts who we are without flinching. The human experience isn't depicted—it asserts itself. In his art, it’s more than a subject; it’s a constant, undeniable presence.
