María Magán
Contemporary Transparencies Trompe l'oeil. Black Still Life. Condom Bubble

2022

About the Item

This framed oil painting presents a transparent condom inflated into a bubble, suspended with poetic tension on a deep black background. Its small format and intimate scale draw the viewer into a focused contemplation of form and transparency. This transparent condom painting plays with erotic symbolism and pop art language, offering a subtle yet provocative visual metaphor. The light dances across the bubble’s delicate surface, creating a refined contrast between gloss and void. This framed condom painting is ideal for collectors seeking minimalist works with conceptual depth and sensual undertones. Globo de Sal I is part of María Magán’s Chicles series, where the artist humorously recontextualizes prophylactic objects as chewed gum or balloon forms. By elevating elements often considered repulsive after use, Magán explores the boundaries between attraction and aversion, beauty and taboo. Through precise oil technique, she transforms latex into luminous abstraction, inviting reflection on pleasure, taste, and cultural symbolism.

«My brother gave them a name» Still Life Oil Painting by Samantha Van Heest
By Samantha Van Heest
Located in Oslo, NO
This painting was inspired by the artists very first toy, a small blue giraffe, given to her as a day-old baby. It is something that has been around her whole life, and even though it is inanimate, there is a feeling of personification through the years of wear. Her brother as a baby would call giraffes “fa,” which is always a sweet memory she associate with this toy. Samantha Van Heest...
