AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Metamorphosis
Artist: original work by artist E. Pérez Lezcano
Technique: acrylic on canvas
Dimensions: 70x100 cm
Presentation: The work is sent without a frame, carefully packed in a rigid cardboard tube for maximum protection.
COA: Includes a handwritten certificate of authenticity signed by the artist.
In Metamorphosis, the human figure abandons the limits of conventional representation to enter a territory where identity transforms into a complex interweaving of signs, volumes, and geometric structures. The work establishes a dialogue between contemporary cubism and a sensibility with surrealist resonances, proposing a vision of the face as a changing, multiple reality that cannot be defined from a single perspective.
The composition centers on a presence of almost totemic appearance, whose features fragment and reorganize into a visually architectural form of marked psychological intensity. The asymmetrical eyes, pronounced curves, and angular shapes generate tension between what is recognizable and what is abstract. The figure appears to be in the midst of transformation, suspended between different identities and states of existence. This formal ambiguity evokes both Picasso’s explorations of portrait decomposition and the world of hybrid figures associated with Wifredo Lam.
The palette, dominated by bluish grays, deep blacks, and intense blues, is interrupted by yellow, pink, and turquoise accents that introduce luminosity and dynamism. The densely colored surfaces coexist with curved lines and strokes of varying intensity, creating a visual rhythm that emphasizes the sense of internal movement.
Metamorphosis transcends figurative distortion to pose a reflection on the unstable nature of identity. The face ceases to be a definitive image and becomes a space of permanent transformation, where the human, the symbolic, and the imaginary coexist in a single pictorial reality.

Seller's Story
I am a contemporary visual artist based in Spain. My work explores the continuing relevance of Cubism from a contemporary perspective, building a visual language of my own in which form, color, and composition interact to create scenes imbued with balance, symbolism, and emotion.
Each work is an original, exclusive creation, conceived as a one-of-a-kind piece that reflects an ongoing exploration of the figure, space, and expression. My aim is to create paintings that not only catch the eye, but also establish a lasting connection with those who view them.
All works are signed and come with a Certificate of Authenticity, guaranteeing their originality and provenance.
My paintings are part of private collections in several countries and are intended for collectors who value the authenticity, quality, and distinctive character of contemporary art.
