Description from the seller
“ La Memoria de los peces”(2026) is a work with a strong symbolic charge in which Alejandro Faura explores the relationship between memory, identity and permanence. The human figure emerges from an evocative atmosphere surrounded by fish that act as metaphors of memories, experiences, and emotions that endure over time. Above its head, a red fish becomes the conceptual axis of the composition, symbolizing what persists in memory when everything else seems to fade away. Executed in oil on canvas, the work stands out for an expressive brushstroke and a careful chromatic construction, where the intense blues of the background contrast with the vibrant presence of the red fish, generating a powerful visual tension. The combination of realism and poetic language gives the painting a dreamlike and deeply human atmosphere, inviting the viewer to reflect on the memories that accompany us and shape our identity. The piece is in excellent conservation condition, sold directly by the artist, it will be delivered with a certificate of authenticity, it will be shipped rolled and carefully sent inside a tube.
