Where Time Descends the Hill

Onde o Tempo Desce a Colina

Mixed media on canvas70 × 150 cmHeight × width · canvas

In this painting, I wanted to capture the timeless beauty of Lisbon, with the city gently descending the hill and the Pantheon standing out on the horizon. Through the use of impasto and texture, I sought to convey the city’s tactile quality and the sensation of time’s movement. The style, both figurative and abstract, with geometric lines, reflects the contrast between the city’s history and modernity.
