Gaby Acevedo - Mar nº132 (XL)

"Sea" No. 132 is a new contemporary abstract artwork, unique and original, belonging to the Sea series (Seascape). Inspired by the light, colors, and serenity of the Mediterranean Sea.
At the bottom, I worked a fusion of different blues that evoke movement, transparency, and the freshness of the water. The sky, in shades of light blue and white, adds breadth and brightness to the composition.
A horizontal line in cream and beige tones traces a subtle horizon, balancing the lightness of the sky with the depth of the sea. Each stroke is designed to convey calm, harmony, and the timeless beauty of the essential.

About the artist:

My name is Gaby Acevedo, I am a visual artist, born in Argentina (1972). I live and produce my works in Spain. With more than 25 years of experience, I specialize in abstract art, mixed media, and collage. My artistic practice unfolds as a form of observation and dialogue with everyday life, especially with the urban spaces I inhabit. I work across painting, photography and other visual languages to explore how the city shapes our emotions, memories, and our way of being in the world.
