A contemporary abstract acrylic painting defined by a deep chromatic field, where structure emerges through subtle divisions and controlled spatial relationships. The composition is dominated by a vast blue plane, establishing a sense of stillness and visual depth.
A monolithic form appears anchored within the field, acting as a point of presence and balance. This element does not interrupt the space but stabilizes it, reinforcing the overall architectural order of the composition.
Fine incised lines traverse the surface, introducing minimal yet precise divisions that organize the territory without breaking its continuity. These lines function as structural guides, suggesting quiet transitions across different levels of perception.
Smaller geometric elements are distributed throughout the composition, creating a subtle rhythm that reinforces scale and spatial orientation. Their presence introduces moments of emergence within an otherwise stable and continuous field.
This contemporary abstract painting emphasizes silence, balance and structural clarity over gesture. The work operates as a unified field, where space is not depicted but constructed through proportion, presence and restraint.
About the artist
Maurizio Valch is a visual artist, writer and graphic designer, trained in Graphic Design and Fine Arts. He lived in Miami (USA) until 2013, where he ran his own studio, and later in Barcelona (Spain), where he participated in exhibitions at the Royal Artistic Circle. In 2017 he presented a work at the Gran Teatre del Liceu. He has also collaborated with MACBA.
His work explores the genesis of metaphysical territories — pictorial spaces where geological landscape and human consciousness begin to intersect.
Using a visual language inspired by geology, horizon lines and tectonic formations, Valch constructs territories where the emergence of individual awareness appears to arise from the earth itself. Within these landscapes, symbolic elements such as stairways, monolithic forms and architectural traces act as markers of perception, transition and genesis.
Rather than depicting historical narratives or social structures, his paintings focus on a primordial moment: the appearance of individual consciousness within the territory.
Many of his works are accompanied by original poetic texts written by the artist.
