Description from the seller
Original contemporary work created in 2026, combining mixed techniques and material experimentation. The composition features an elegant figure of a bird surrounded by colored spherical elements, creating a dynamic atmosphere between the organic and the abstract.
The work was produced from a watercolor paper print, later applied through collage onto canvas. The colors were deeply transformed by an artistic process involving the controlled action of water, alcohol and fire, conferring textures, transparencies and unique and unrepeatable chromatic effects. The intervention was enriched with acrylic paints and applications of colored acrylic spheres, which add relief, shine and visual depth to the composition.
Each detail was manually worked, resulting in a singular piece that combines traditional and contemporary techniques, exploring the interaction between matter, color and movement.
Characteristics:
* Technique: Mixed media on canvas
* Support: Print on watercolor paper glued onto canvas
* Interventions: Water, alcohol, controlled fire and acrylic paints
* Additional elements: Applications of colored acrylic spheres
* Dimensions: 60 × 73 cm
* Year: 2026
* Condition: Excellent
* Certificate of Authenticity: Included
Unique work, signed by the artist and accompanied by Certificate of Authenticity.
