About the Item

This intricate artwork by Fidel Santos depicts what the artist refers to as a "fieldscape", a beautifully rendered lace depiction of flowers. This mixed media piece transforms the craftsmanship of antique lace into a true art form, revealing a myriad of flowers both finely woven and tattered preserved through the artist's lens. Santos's artistic prowess shines through as he skillfully captures the essence of aged and antique lace, evoking a sense of reverence for the intricacies of a bygone era. The finely detailed depiction reflects Santos's deep connections with Italy and Spain, both lace-making capitols. The photograph celebrates the intersection of craft and art. Embedded in Santos's oeuvre is a profound love for the aged, a passion for documenting the fleeting beauty of decaying art forms. This artwork stands as a testament to his overarching desire to preserve the legacy of craftsmanship, elevating it to a realm of enduring beauty. Through the lens of Santos, the lace fieldscape becomes not just a composition of flowers and fabric but a timeless narrative, a visual poem echoing the whispers of history. Fidel Santos is a contemporary artist whose work is profoundly influenced by the rich tapestry of Old Master, Baroque, and Renaissance art. Drawing inspiration from these classical periods, Santos skillfully weaves a visual narrative that transcends time. His artistic repertoire is characterized by a meticulous exploration of iconography and symbolism, echoing the traditions of the past while infusing them with a modern sensibility. Through his art, Santos invites viewers on a journey into the realms of allegory and metaphor, where each stroke is a thoughtful homage to the mastery of bygone eras. Fidel Santos seamlessly blends classical techniques with contemporary perspectives and creates evocative artworks that resonate with historical depth and contemporary relevance.
