Melody Between Fragments

Melodia Entre Fragmentos

Mixed media on canvas120 × 80 cmHeight × width · canvas4 250 €

Some moments never remain whole in our memory. What stays are fragments: a melody, a glance, a gesture, a ray of light.

In this painting, I wanted to capture that sensation. The figure appears divided into multiple visual planes, as if music had the power to dismantle time and rearrange it into a new harmony.

Balancing between figuration and abstraction, each fragment tells part of the same story.
