Description:
Nightmare is a visceral immersion into the subconscious. The surface is constructed from crisscrossing gestures, dense layers, and incisive strokes that generate an atmosphere of constant tension. The contrast between blacks, whites, and gold accents erupts like flashes of lucidity within the chaos, evoking fragmented thoughts and states of unease.
The composition does not seek order or repose: it expands in multiple directions, trapping the gaze in a web of raw energy. The oil paint lends weight and depth, solidifying the work as a direct emotional testimony, where gesture becomes language and matter becomes memory. Nightmare presents itself as a powerful and honest piece, typical of a stage of intense exploration within the artist's career.
