Description of the art
This mural appears at first glance to be an abstract composition. However, within that abstraction lies a structure of letters where calligraphy blends with characteristic forms of my pictorial language developed in the workshop.
The work features overlays and transparencies accompanied by different textures: zebra skin, reddish areas that evoke the surface of a ruby, and details of deep blue sky with clouds. These layers interact with a range of yellows that bring a warmth inspired by 70s soul.
All of this is set against a dark green background that unifies the composition, where the different elements combine to create a kind of visual potion, designed to catch the eye and not leave the viewer indifferent.
