AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Blue Totem
Artist: original work by the artist E. Pérez Lezcano
Technique: Acrylic on canvas
Dimensions: 70x100 cm
Presentation: The work is shipped unstretched, carefully packed in a rigid cardboard tube for maximum protection.
Certificate of Authenticity (COA): Includes a hand-signed certificate of authenticity by the artist.
In Blue Totem, the human figure is transformed into a presence with ancestral resonances, located at the boundary between portrait, mask, and symbolic abstraction. The work establishes a dialogue between contemporary Cubism and surrealist imagery, evoking the hybrid figures of Wifredo Lam and the formal freedom of the vanguards of the 20th century.
The composition centers around a frontal face, divided into asymmetrical chromatic planes that defy any naturalistic interpretation. The circular eyes, hypnotic in appearance, and the vertical element that traverses the visage confer upon the figure a solemnity almost ceremonial. The body, built through geometric structures, spirals and wavy motifs, seems to become a surface of signs, where the human and the imaginary intertwine.
The chromatic intensity is one of the main expressive resources of the painting. Electric blues and deep turquoises dialogue with bright reds, luminous oranges, and vibrant yellows, while the black surfaces provide contrast and monumentality. Visible brushstrokes, sinuous lines, and the repetition of circular motifs generate a visual rhythm that introduces movement into a seemingly hieratic composition.
Blue Totem offers a reinterpretation of the totemic symbol from a contemporary sensibility, not ascribing it to a specific cultural tradition. The figure thus acquires an open identity, situated between the ancestral and the imaginary, where geometry and color build a language of mystery, presence, and transformation.

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.
