Description from the seller

ABOUT THE PAINTER
Born on December 16, 1973 in the city of Viseu, Portugal, Filipe Rebelo, artistic name Phill Bello, studied in secondary education the Fine Arts track; during these years he first came into contact with various media such as charcoal drawing, graphic drawing, gouache painting and watercolor, ultimately opting for oil painting as his final project in high school.

He later attended the Painting course at the Faculty of Fine Arts of Porto where he created his first works.

He did lithography and screen printing, painted ceramics and did various stencil works.

He held a collective exhibition in Porto with other students from the Faculty.

He moved to Lisbon where he worked as a graphic designer and illustrator.

Several exhibitions followed, both private and collective.

Currently he dedicates himself only to painting, receiving commissions from various personalities and companies.

ABOUT THE PAINTING

This is an oil abstract painting with strong visual impact, built from a vertical composition that evokes the continuous movement of rain or lights falling in space.

The palette is dominated by deep, nocturnal blues, almost marine, contrasted by vertical threads in white, beige and light tones, that run down the surface of the canvas. These lines create a repetitive and hypnotic rhythm, conveying a sense of fall, fluidity and the passing of time.

At the bottom, the brushstrokes become more horizontal and dense, suggesting reflections, puddles of water or a liquid surface being impacted by the drops. The overlapping of layers gives texture and depth, with thicker areas of paint that subtly catch the light.

The overall body of work conveys a contemplative, melancholic and poetic atmosphere, reminiscent of a rainy night seen through a window or urban reflections under the rain. It is a sophisticated piece that engages very well with contemporary environments, bringing drama, elegance and introspection to the space.
