About the Item
This grand mural unveils a mesmerizing Baroque-style etching that commands attention with its celestial drama. The expansive sky serves as a vast canvas, adorned with flowing circular clouds that weave a tale of anticipation and grandeur. In the Baroque tradition, the clouds seem to swirl and dance, creating a dynamic atmosphere that foretells an imminent storm or an epic event of extraordinary magnitude.
The intricate details of the etching capture the essence of the Baroque period, with a meticulous rendering of each cloud, evoking a sense of movement and tumult. The play of light and shadow across the celestial expanse adds depth and drama, creating a visually arresting scene that transports the observer to a moment of celestial suspense.
As the circular clouds gather momentum, there is a palpable sense of anticipation, inviting viewers to ponder the impending narrative. This mural, reminiscent of Baroque masterpieces, encapsulates the spirit of the era, where grandiosity and theatricality merged to evoke profound emotional responses. The sky becomes a stage for the unfolding drama, and the swirling clouds act as heralds of a climactic moment, leaving the observer in awe of the impending spectacle that the universe is poised to unveil.
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. In seamlessly blending classical and modern digital techniques with contemporary perspectives, Fidel Santos creates evocative artworks that resonate with both historical depth and contemporary relevance.

Affresco di Aranci - Orange Trees
Located in Brooklyn, NY
This photograph captures the timeless beauty of an aged 18th-century Italian fresco painting. The artwork features potted orange trees, their vibrant green foliage and citrus fruits providing a striking contrast. Set against the backdrop of an expansive Italian countryside, the landscape unfolds with rolling hills and distant vistas.
The significance of the orange trees in the fresco is deeply rooted in the historical context of 18th-century Italy. During this period, the cultivation of citrus fruits, including oranges, became a symbol of prosperity and luxury. Italy, with its favorable climate, was a prime location for cultivating oranges, and their presence in frescoes often represented affluence, abundance, and the beauty of the Italian landscape.

La cabeza de Isabel
Located in Brooklyn, NY
This photograph captures the solemn visage of the biblical figure Elizabeth, known as "Isabel" in Spanish. Once part of a revered church statue, now only her head remains, gazing downward with a sense of contemplation. Elizabeth, a key figure in the Bible, was the mother of John the Baptist and played a crucial role in biblical narratives, particularly in the Visitation when she greeted Mary, the mother of Jesus. The photograph preserves the essence of her biblical importance, depicting the enduring reverence and the spiritual depth associated with this revered figure. The downward gaze suggests a posture of reflection and humility, inviting viewers to contemplate the biblical legacy embodied by the remaining fragment of this once-complete church statue.

_______________________
Erik Pawassar's work focuses on the beauty of the disregarded or mundane object. The subjects for his striking and captivating visuals are typically set in the most ordinary environments, drawing the viewer into a charged but serene experience based on composition, palette and formal lines. Saturated in color, the nominal subjects gather a haunting and mesmerizing quality, creating a poignant pretext for the making of a formal color photograph.
Decisively capturing the traces left by humanity, Pawassar's images are filled with a sense of universal nostalgia and pay homage to the passage of time and the extinguished moment, referencing documentary and street photographers like Henri Cartier-Bresson, Sebastian Salgado...
