MARTE (1990) - XXL • Arctic Flowers • NO RESERVE

This is a unique and original work by the artist MARTE, signed by hand on the back and with an included certificate of authenticity. This particular painting transcends landscape boundaries, sharing elements of surrealism and approaching conceptual art. It proposes a new vision in contemporary abstract art with nods to abstract expressionism. The XXL format of the painting is ideal for admiring the details in all their splendor; it works very well in galleries and modern interiors.

MARTE's work is characterized by a balanced palette and soft brushstrokes complemented by subtle glazes. They are compositions with a contemplative spirit, and their scenes are aimed at conveying an idea associated with a strong experience. Therefore, the construction of the pictorial setting is fundamental to evoke that dreamlike vision. Their works can include many themes but follow a common conceptual thread that is clearly observable in all their paintings.
