Description from the seller
“Expanded Face” is a series of geometric portraits where the face stops being a contained figure and becomes an expanding territory. Through planes, lines, and fragments of color, each work dismantles the traditional idea of portrait and reconfigures it as an open structure: a face that stretches, shifts, and reorganizes beyond its usual limits.
The series proposes that identity is not fixed, but a system in constant motion. Each fragment —a block of color, an intersection, a void— functions as an extension of the self, an emotion or gesture expanded into space. Thus, “Expanded Face” transforms the face into an emotional architecture: a portrait that does not confine itself to anatomy, but unfolds toward the abstract, the symbolic, and the infinite.
Unique large work 100 x 70 x 2.5 cm.
Acrylic on canvas
Certificate of authenticity
2026
Sides: 2.5 cm. It includes an extra allowance of about 2 cm of canvas on each side.
Shipping: The work will be rolled and protected with packing layers, in a sturdy tube. Once the work is paid for, three days are required for the packing process and delivery to the shipping company. The piece will arrive within ten days, depending on the destination country.
