Description:

Original work belonging to the series Suspended Horizons, branch “Apparitions”.

An inner light emerges from the dark background of the composition, delicately and intensively passing through the painterly matter. The vertical drips and the small golden detail create a balance between depth, silence and luminous tension.

Created with mixed media on cotton canvas, the work combines transparencies, texture and minimal interventions, evoking a presence that resists and continues to emerge from the dark.

An evocative and contemporary piece, conceived for those seeking immersive and atmospheric abstract works.

Work signed on the front and back, accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.

Colors may vary slightly depending on the screen.

Project Statement
Concept Series – Suspended Horizons

This artwork belongs to my painting path dedicated to the Suspended Horizons, a research born from the meeting of water and intuition. In these canvases, fluid matter gives shape to interior landscapes: imagined visions that do not represent real places, but states of mind, perceptual thresholds and fragments of ephemeral beauty.

The surface develops through light layering, transparencies and sparse fields, evoking silence, waiting and the breath of a suspended time. In some works essential signs emerge — stylized blossoms, floating petals, reflected trees — symbolic presences that amplify the meditative and dreamlike dimension without imposing a defined narrative.

The series is configured as a process in flux, open to gestural and formal variations, faithful to a poetics of unspoken and threshold. Within this research three expressive modes take shape, which are not closed categories but movements of the same inquiry.

- Evanescences -

In “Evanescences” the matter dissolves and withdraws. The image appears as a distant memory, a barely grasped vision, where the landscape becomes rarefied, unstable, suspended between presence and disappearance.

- Presences -

In “Presences” the painting thickens and takes shape. The matter emerges with greater intensity, yet retains a dreamlike quality, like a form that reveals itself without ever fully defining itself.

- Apparitions -

In “Apparitions” light emerges from dark depths. Space becomes more intimate, and the horizon becomes a distant threshold, a direction toward which the gaze tends, guided by a luminous presence that manifests and withdraws at the same time.

Artist Statement

My work explores the fluid nature of water and its ability to generate forms, movement and light.

Through the use of watercolors, acrylics, inks and glazes, I translate this energy into abstract visions that bring silence, mystery and introspection.

I paint inner landscapes: suspended horizons, reflections, blossoms. Images that do not represent real places, but perceptual states straddling appearance and dissolution.

I let the water guide the process, embracing imperfections and fleeting traces as an essential part of the work.

My research moves between lightness and matter, keeping an open space for interpretation.

Each work is an invitation to slow down and breathe with the eyes.
