Description from the seller
Medium: oil pastel
Support: Paper
Date: 2025
Signed
Dimensions of the image: 33x18 cm
Sheet size: 42x29.7 cm
Description:
Still life centered on the gesture of opening a citrus fruit, exposing its vibrant pulp.
The divided background intensifies chromatic contrast, while the thick material brings the gaze closer to the physicality of the fruit and hands.
A representation of everyday life, of sensory appreciation.
The Artist:
Paula Rodrigues Martins (b. 1983, Vila do Conde) lives in Leiria, Portugal. With a foundational background in Visual Arts, in Industrial Design, and a Master’s in Product Engineering, she developed a professional path based on technical rigor, formal construction, and the relationship between conception and materialization.
Her artistic practice emerges from that same structured thinking, shifting it from the functional field to the sensory territory.
She mainly works in oil pastel, exploring materiality.
Through fragments of daily life — paused figures, domestic gestures, intimate moments — she investigates the tension between body and object, resistance and friction.
Her approach combines rigorous composition with expressivity of material, situating her work within the realm of contemporary figuration.
