MUMA - Cristales 11 (XL)

The series "Crystals" presents itself as a territory of tension between transparency and superposition, between the visible and what remains suspended. The geometric shapes, seemingly precise and rational, cease to be closed structures to become permeable bodies, traversed by light, color, and gaze. There is here no cold or normative geometry; each plane seems to shift, float, or dematerialize in a space that never quite stabilizes.

Crystal functions as a philosophical metaphor of contemporary perception: an element capable of reflecting, refracting, and fragmenting reality simultaneously. The translucent layers produce unexpected chromatic encounters, generating new forms that do not exist on their own, but in relation to others. The work is thus built from the idea that every identity is relational and mutable, never fixed or absolute. Each color modifies the other; each plane alters the reading of space. What we see always depends on the position from which we look.

The void acts not as absence but as a field of possibility. In this sense, the painting dialogues with a phenomenological conception of space: the image does not represent an object, but a perceptual experience in constant transformation.

The transparencies also introduce a reflection on time. The forms do not appear as definitive instants, but as traces, shifts, or memories of movement. The overlapping of planes reminds us that all human experience is composed of cumulative strata: memories, emotions, perceptions, and relationships that intertwine without completely disappearing.

In Crystals, geometry stops being merely a language of order to become a sensitive structure. The work invites slow contemplation, where the gaze discovers that reality is not compact or stable, but fragile, changing, and traversed by multiple transparencies. Each intersection reveals that every truth always contains other latent possibilities.

About MUMA:

MUMA is an artistic duo formed by a Generalist 3D and Designer and an Art Historian, both educated at CEU San Pablo University in Madrid. Their artistic practice centers on the visual arts, with particular interest in color, movement, and the dynamism of forms, as well as variations of the environment. Their work is conceived to integrate into space and establish a direct dialogue with routine and human experience, exploring a vital vision linked to the ideals of Impressionism, such as the relationship with nature, color, and changing environments. MUMA is connected to the professional world of digital and plastic arts in Madrid, with participation in competitions.
