Description from the seller
An anticipated encounter. 2026
Mixed media on wood
90 × 90 cm
Description of the work
"An anticipated encounter" is part of the series «Cartography of interdependence», and represents the artist Jesús Poveda's recent pictorial research. In this work the artist offers a critical review of the vanguard movements of the 20th century, articulated through a contemporary visual language of his own.
In this piece, what stands out is the harmonious coexistence of figurative elements, geometric patterns, and symbols reinterpreted from digital visual culture; a hybridization that places the image on a threshold suspended between memory, imagination, and the artist's inner sensibility. The central human figure, deliberately devoid of identifiable traits, rises as a universal and open archetype. This timelessness invites the viewer to become an active agent, projecting onto the canvas their own dynamics of relationship, otherness, and belonging.
About the Artist
Jesús Poveda is a Spanish visual artist who lives and works from his studio in Valencia. After a solid career of more than fifteen years as a professional graphic designer, his university training sparked a deep interest in contemporary art and visual thought. Around 2011 he began to materialize his first works and exhibition projects.
His artistic production sits at the exact intersection between the analog and the digital. Poveda articulates the pictorial practice by combining traditional methodologies and procedures of the craft with methodological processes derived from graphic design.
Currently, his research develops through pictorial series where the canvas is conceived from visual thinking. This approach gives his pieces a symbolic, magnetic, and recognizable language, asserting the painter's craft as an act of resistance and slowdown in the face of the contemporary digital overstimulation.
Since 2015, his work has been shown in various solo and group exhibitions within culturally significant spaces, with a special focus on contexts linked to contemporary art and sustainability. In recent years, his career has experienced notable consolidation and professionalization.
For the buyer:
Exclusive and original piece, ideal to elevate any space and be part of a collection with its own personality. The starting price does not reflect its true artistic or decorative value.
