Leandro Olano - Soberanía del Deseo

In Soberanía del Deseo, Leandro Olano constructs a portrait that is not offered to the viewer: it imposes itself. The figure emerges from color with a nearly ritual presence, crowned by an elevated gaze that refuses submission and demands autonomy. There is no timidity or concession; there is affirmation.

The use of oil paint is visceral and decisive. Bright reds, sunlit yellows, electric blues, and deep violets overlap in layers that do not seek to soften the form, but to intensify it. The face becomes a symbolic territory where identity, desire, and female power merge into a single statement. The splatters and drips reinforce the sense of internal movement, as if emotional energy were overflowing the boundaries of the canvas.

The composition draws attention to the gesture of the raised chin and slightly parted lips, signs of pride, sensuality, and self-mastery. This is not a passive muse, but a presence conscious of her strength. Olano engages here in dialogue with contemporary expressionism and the psychological portrait, using color as a language of personal affirmation and inner freedom.

From a curatorial perspective, this work stands out for its ability to transform a space: it does not merely accompany, it leads. It is a piece that demands to be seen, establishes character, and turns any collection into a territory with its own voice.

Sovereignty of Desire is ideal for collectors who seek works with magnetism, a clear identity, and an intense emotional charge. A painting that is not only to be contemplated, but felt as a living presence inside the home.

Certificates of authenticity will be sent along with the artwork only in sales exceeding 500 euros.

To acquire this piece is to bet on a powerful, contemporary, and deeply expressive work, destined to become an indispensable focal point within any serious collection.
