EL SUENO 2019

El Sueño explores the boundaries between reality, memory, and imagination through a dreamlike underwater journey. Inspired by the accompanying poem, the painting invites viewers to travel beneath the ocean's surface, where clarity is found not above but below. A small city appears in the distance while the sky, sea, and a submarine unfold in a linear abstract composition, creating a landscape that exists between the real and the imagined.
The work reflects a desire to see the world from a different perspective. In the poem, the narrator takes a train to the depths of the sea and encounters a woman who becomes a symbol of connection, curiosity, and belonging. The underwater realm offers a place of reflection, where life can be observed with greater clarity and where endless conversations become possible.
Created with oil paint and metal, the painting contains multiple layers and hidden drawings that reveal themselves through touch and careful observation. Viewers are invited to interact with the work, discovering details that emerge from beneath the surface, much like memories or dreams slowly coming into focus.
