ABOUT FELIPE

For over a decade, the work of Felipe Achondo has functioned as a psychological excavation. What began as an exploration of the human figure has evolved into an absolute fascination with the mechanical through his series, Manual de Despiece (Disassembly Manual). In the Studio, Felipe does not merely paint cars; he paints the ghost inside the machine.

His creative process is a constant conflict between the cold precision of engineering and the visceral honesty of oil painting. Through his signature technique, "Controlled Chaos" Felipe forcefully attacks the canvas to break the perfection of form. 

He seeks the precise point of tension where metal becomes skin, where oil leaks become blood, and where iconic silhouettes—such as the Porsche 993 or the 550 Spyder—emerge from a chaos of pigment, drips, and raw gesture.

Working from Chile for a global collective of enthusiasts, the pieces Felipe creates in the studio are large-scale battlegrounds—often reaching 1.8 meters. They are not intended to decorate a space, but to dominate it: capturing the nostalgia, the grit, and the raw power of an era where machines still had a pulse.

In our studio, the machine is not an object. For Felipe, it is a sacrifice offered to the paint.
