AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
•Title: “Elements”
•Artist: Cosmin Marian Guta
•Year: 2026
•Technique: Mixed media on canvas, pastels, ink, oil and acrylic on canvas
------------ ---------------
* Painting dimensions: 170x127 cm painting
* Total fabric dimensions: 176x133 cm (with about 3-4 cm of free space on each side to be able to frame)
* SHIPMENT WITHOUT FRAME / SHIPPING WITHOUT FRAME
---------------------------
• Style: Contemporary, in which I use mixed media and organic matter that, when manipulated, takes on a tactile quality reminiscent of human epidermis. The surfaces of my works become skins that breathe, scar, erode and transform. They are sensitive maps where memories, marks and silences are inscribed. I am interested in that crossing point between the physical and the symbolic, where matter seems to have a life of its own.
• Shipping: Packaged and boxed in a cardboard tube
• Signed on the front of the canvas
• Note: Colors may vary slightly compared to photographs
• The work is unique.
***The artwork will be shipped in a cardboard tube, with a tracking number, via an internationally known shipping company, for example (FEDEX, UPS, TNT)***
Description
In Elements, matter becomes language and color becomes emotion. The figures, barely hinted at between glazes, transparencies and spontaneous gestures, seem to emerge from a space where time dilutes and the boundaries between the human and the natural disappear. Incandescent reds, deep blues and earthy ochers converge in a dance of contrasts that evokes fire, water, air and earth as primordial forces of existence.
The work does not seek to describe a scene, but to awaken an experience. Each brushstroke is a vestige of transformation, each superposition of forms speaks of memory, of identity and of the constant metamorphosis that defines life. In that vibrant universe, chaos finds harmony and the energy contained in the elements manifests as a vital pulse that connects the viewer with what is essential.
Elements invites you to contemplate beyond the image, to lose yourself in its multiple readings and to discover that, just as nature never remains still, human beings are also made of change, balance and an incessant search for meaning.

Seller's Story
Cosmin Marian Guta (1994) is a Romanian contemporary artist whose work sits at the crossroads of figurative painting, mythology, and emotional exploration. His work stands out for its strong symbolic charge and an intense aesthetic, where the human figure becomes a vehicle for psychological and timeless narratives.
He trained at the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome, where he completed his studies in 2020 with the highest grade. During his academic phase he broadened his artistic perspective through an Erasmus program in Barcelona, at EASD Llotja, a city that would later become a key point in his professional development. In Barcelona he also did internships at the RocíoSantaCruz gallery, an experience that reinforced his direct contact with the contemporary art circuit.
The artist's work is characterized by the use of mixed media on canvas, where oil, acrylic, ink, and pastel converge. His compositions, of intense visual force, explore themes such as identity, myth, the body, and deep emotional states, giving rise to scenes loaded with tension, symbolism, and an almost dreamlike atmosphere.
Guta works with material intuitively, building his paintings through successive layers of materials, textures, and gestures. In this process, the surface acquires a tactile quality that recalls the human epidermis: the fabrics seem to breathe, scar, erode, and transform over time. The works thus become living skins, sensitive maps where memories, marks, and silences are inscribed.
In many of his compositions there is a subtle line or division on the pictorial surface, a natural outcome of the very process of stratifying matter. More than a formal element, this presence functions as a conceptual axis within the work. For the artist, painting reflects how human identity is constructed: not as a perfect continuity, but as a layering of experiences, memories, and fragments of time.
These divisions suggest pause, transition, or a scar; they indicate rupture without denying the unity of the whole. In this way, each painting is configured as a field of accumulated time, where each layer preserves the imprint of what came before and each fracture participates in a deeper totality.
He has presented his work in solo exhibitions in Barcelona, in cultural spaces such as Cotxeres de Sants (2022 and 2024), and has participated in international artistic events such as Rome Art Week in Rome. He has also been part of numerous group exhibitions in Spain and Italy, including projects linked to institutions and museums such as the Andersen Museum in Rome.
