Description from the seller

Gallery selling price: €1,700
Edition 2/3 – Signed and numbered
Framed (simple black wooden frame, no glass)
Fine Art print on Hahnemühle Baryta paper

DESCRIPTION

The Stalker presents a scene where domestic calm and suspense coexist in a delicate visual balance. The protagonist appears relaxed inside her home, seated in an armchair with a bathrobe and a towel on her head, reading the newspaper under a warm and enveloping light.

The atmosphere conveys intimacy and tranquility, almost like a cinematic still. However, the shadow projected on the wall—with an unsettling silhouette of rounded ears—breaks that apparent serenity and suggests a silent threat.

The work plays with irony and the eerie, turning the everyday into a visual narrative charged with subtle tension. It invites the viewer to place themselves in that preceding moment when something is about to happen.

ABOUT THE ARTIST

Her work has been published in magazines such as Vogue Italia and Esquire, and exhibited in institutions and spaces such as the Louvre (Paris) and the Saatchi Gallery (London).

Seller's Story

Lídia Vives is a visual artist and fine art photographer born in Lleida and based in Barcelona. Her work fuses pictorial tradition, symbolic storytelling and contemporary fashion aesthetics, creating images that go beyond visual beauty to reveal hidden layers of meaning. She is known for hiding secrets in her photographs — enigmatic symbols, subtle narrative details, and recurring elements such as bees. These visual mysteries have become her signature, offering viewers the chance to decode personal and universal themes embedded in each composition. With influences from Renaissance and Baroque painting, Vives constructs her photographs with meticulous art direction, often integrating custom-made props, mixed media, and self-portraiture. Her imagery balances the timeless and the surreal, evoking a sense of suspended reality. Her work has been exhibited in museums, galleries, and international art fairs, and featured in publications including Vogue Italia and Esquire. She has collaborated with institutions and brands such as RTVE and Penguin Random House, and her pieces are part of private collections around the world.
