The strong contrast between light and dark depth creates a mysterious, intense, and contemplative atmosphere.
A vibrant artwork ideal for contemporary interiors..

The work is signed in the original, accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. It is also signed and dated on the back of the piece.

It is advisable to analyze all images and detailed photographs; colors may vary slightly from the actual colors of the paintings depending on screen settings. Unique work.
The images in the presentation are montages and may vary in size to better illustrate the details of the painting.
The actual dimensions are those stated in the description.

ARTISTIC PROFILE

Cristina Talea is a visual artist, architect, and set designer who investigates the connection between emotion and structure in her work.
Her atmospheric pieces exhibit a sensitivity influenced by her early education in fine arts, where color and texture serve as elements of suggestion and depth. In contrast, her abstract approach, shaped by her architectural background, employs a more disciplined language grounded in rhythm, balance, and composition, while still retaining the expressive power of color and contrast.

By merging these two perspectives, she produces images that evoke rather than describe, crafting a visual realm that lies between intuition and structure, as well as sensitivity and strength.
