About the Item
Salt Balloon II is a framed contemporary oil painting by María Magán, part of her Chicles series. Painted in oil on canvas with photorealistic precision, the work features two inflated condom-like forms floating in silent proximity against a deep black background. Their glossy surfaces and mirrored curves evoke both tension and intimacy, offering a minimalist still life charged with material ambiguity. This dual-object composition plays with sculptural balance, bodily reference, and pop abstraction.
Magán transforms these everyday latex objects—commonly discarded or hidden—into highly aestheticized visual structures. Each fold and reflection is rendered with technical control, revealing subtle shifts in light, volume, and surface that blur the line between erotic materiality and conceptual restraint. The black backdrop isolates the forms, allowing them to hover as both visual metaphors and sculptural illusions.
Part of the broader Chicles project, Salt Balloon II reimagines the language of pleasure, taste, and aversion through symbolic painting. Its small scale and bold visual presence make it ideal for collectors seeking contemporary pop work with conceptual clarity, minimalist elegance, and tactile immediacy. The matte black wooden frame reinforces its status as an object of contemplation, suitable for both intimate installations and critical curatorial contexts.
