Alejandro Faura - Pensamiento Fragmentado

“Fragmented Thought” (2026), by Alejandro Faura, sits in an ambiguous territory where intimate figuration is traversed by a dreamlike logic that deconstructs perception into simultaneous layers; the portrait, resolved with classical modeling and a nuanced grayscale palette, acts as an anchor of reality against the intrusion of gestural bands in intense reds and turquoises that cut and reconfigure the image, suggesting mental states in transit. The fish, executed with looser and more vibrant brushstrokes, function as symbolic elements of fluid thought, moving horizontally as if traversing different planes of consciousness, reinforcing the idea of psychic fragmentation. Technically, the work combines a base of glazes and soft degradations in the face with more material and expressive interventions in the background and the chromatic bands, generating a contrast between control and spontaneity; the layering of textures, the lost and recovered edges, and the partial figure-ground integration build a visual tension that oscillates between the tangible and the evanescent, inviting the viewer to question the stability of identity and to recognize the painting as a space where reality dissolves into changing perceptual states. The work is an oil painting on canvas, sold directly by the artist, it is an original, its condition is excellent, counting on a protective layer of varnish, it is hand-signed and its shipping will be carried out carefully in a tube.
