Description from the seller
Oil on canvas
Dimensions: 56 x 48 cm
Description
Contemporary work that captures a fleeting moment between the body and the water, transforming it into a dynamic and enveloping composition. The human figure appears partially submerged, fragmented by movement and refraction, creating a scene charged with energy and fluidity.
The painting stands out for its expressive use of color, where intense blues and turquoise tones build a vibrant and luminous aquatic atmosphere. The undulations of the water generate visual rhythm and contrast with the warmth of the skin, reinforcing the sense of movement and depth.
Beyond figurative representation, the work explores concepts such as suspension, the instant, and the transformation of the body within the liquid space. The result is a modern piece, fresh and of great visual impact.
Ideal for collectors and lovers of contemporary art seeking luminous, dynamic works with strong chromatic presence.
Alejandro Carballosa, visual artist and Cuban designer based in Spain, whose career has been defined by the exploration of strength, emotion, and beauty in the animal and human figure. His work combines technical realism with a contemporary vision, where color, light, and movement acquire a symbolic and expressive language.
A trained in visual arts and design, he integrates the aesthetic sensibilities of classical art with modern resources, creating pieces that balance energy and introspection.
His work has been shown in solo and group exhibitions, and is part of private collections in Germany and the United States.
