Alejandro Carballosa - “Danza del Poder”

Oil on canvas
Measurements: 74 x 62 cm
Description
Original work created in oil on canvas depicting two horses at a moment of maximum physical tension. The vertical composition accentuates the upward movement of the figures, capturing the exact instant when force, instinct, and animal energy manifest unrestrained.

The contrast between the gray horse and the earth-toned horse creates a powerful visual balance, reinforced by a warm, textured background that envelops the scene and adds depth. The anatomy is crafted with precision and expressiveness, highlighting the musculature, gesture, and dynamism of the movement.

The work conveys struggle, vitality, freedom, and character, inviting the viewer to feel the intensity of the confrontation beyond the literal, as a metaphor for will and the untamable nature.

Ideal piece for contemporary animal art collectors, lovers of the movement and works with a strong visual impact.
The artist accurately captures the equine anatomy, while the movement of the fur and manes flowing in the wind adds an almost sculptural character to the composition. The work conveys freedom, power, confrontation, and emotion, making the viewer feel the pulse of the moment.

Ideal for contemporary art collectors, lovers of expressive realism, and spaces seeking a piece with a strong visual presence.

Cuban visual artist and designer residing in Spain, with a career marked by the exploration of strength, emotion, and beauty in the animal and human figure. His work combines technical realism with a contemporary vision, where color, light, and movement acquire a symbolic and expressive language.
