About the Item
This elegant work by Fidel Santos captures a delicate antique Renaissance wood carving of white lilies. Despite the visible signs of aging—cracks, chipping paint, and weathered wood—the lilies symbolize enduring grace, particularly in Catholicism, often associated with the Virgin Mary for their purity and grace. Santos employs mixed media techniques and enhanced photography to immortalize this relic, highlighting the inevitable decay that touches everything. This artwork stands as both a tribute to the resilience of spiritual symbolism and a timeless contemplation of the passage of time.
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.
