I met with Zil last December to film an interview on his Studio in South West London. The final video is now been published in the T5 Gallery Heathrow where Zil is exhibiting some of his works.
It is fair to say that Zil's style can capture anyone’s attention; the beauty and the colors of his paintings have a sense of nostalgia, which is difficult not to feel beguiled by.
Zil is an exceptional person and I felt he had the same interest in meeting me - a filmmaker interviewing artists.
On the surface, Zil's work may come across as a the work of a nostalgic Spaniard, but when you get to met him in person an entire world opens up around.
After a few glasses of red wine, we had a chat, accompanied by ariose sounds of Spanish songs from his radio...and below is the final result!
