text: June 22, 2011 by Mexican Artwork Feliciano Béjar was a self-taught Mexican painter and sculptor born in Jiquilpan, Michoacán, Mexico. At the age of 8, Bejar suffered from polio, so he was forced to use crutches for almost five years. At that time he learned various arts, which was encouraged by his mother.
  Bejar explains his magiscope sculptures: "Some distort, some define, but always they give us a new vision. As their generic name indicates, they are instruments to see magically, to see the magic and poetry that exists all around us all the time, but that our indifferent eyes do not wish to perceive."
