Claudio Conde - En silencio - XL (no reserve)

In Silence – Painting on canvas, 100 x 70 cm.
The work presents two fish emerging from each side of the frame to meet at the center of the composition, creating a axis of tension and balance. Against a background of dense, enveloping green vegetation, their bodies stand out with intense color and the vigor of brushstrokes, which accentuate the movement and energy contained in the scene. The contrast between the calm suggested by the title and the chromatic force of the fish produces a dynamic image, where silence is perceived as a suspended moment in the midst of natural vitality.

I am a visual artist with a main focus on painting. My work centers on the exploration of color as language and as a means to build landscapes that are born in the mind but seek to materialize in physical reality. Each work is an attempt to translate sensations, memories, and inner atmospheres into tangible images, creating a bridge between the intangible and the visible. Color is the axis of my research: I use it not only as an aesthetic element but as a tool to open emotional and perceptual spaces.

The work is shipped with a certificate of authenticity.
