Where art and living Come together

Casa Los Arcos Studio is not simply a gallery of works — it is a lived studio.

We do not separate art from life, or life from art. Creation extends beyond art and into objects for living: handcrafted leather goods, copper tools, jewelry, prints, and pieces designed to carry warmth and intention into everyday spaces.

At its heart, the studio is about presence —
about light moving across a surface,
about hands shaping material,
about time held in an object.

The studio brings together two generations of practice rooted in drawing, exploration, and material devotion through the works of father—daughter artist team, Jesus Antonio Mata and Lizbeth Mata.

Jesus Antonio Mata’s work reflects decades in the exploration of time, light, space, light and dark — moving between the natural and artificial, the organic and the constructed. His lifelong relationship to drawing began in childhood, where mark-making felt like entering another world — one shaped by observation and transformation. Over time, his devotion to process has evolved into works that capture moments in transformation—bursts of energy, interwoven fragments, and atmospheres that feel suspended between emergence and dissolution; where each piece becomes a record of time unfolding, pulsating, expanding, or quietly settling into stillness.

Lizbeth Mata’s work embraces emotion, confrontation, and the discovery of new atmospheres. Growing up immersed in her father’s studio, she carries forward a lineage of making — not as repetition, but as dialogue. Her practice explores mindscapes, emotional topographies and the undiscovered spaces that surface through process.

Casa Los Arcos Studio is both an inherited way of life and continuation —

a place where time gathers,
where materials and form are honored,
and where the everyday becomes part of the art itself.
