This original painting by Vanessa Zárate explores the expressive potential of abstraction rooted in landscape perception. Built through layers of thick, gestural brushwork, the composition evokes movement, atmosphere, and shifting spatial depth.
Zárate’s confident application of paint creates a dynamic surface where color and texture interact intuitively. Blues, greens, and whites suggest water, sky, and terrain without resolving into fixed representation, allowing the viewer to experience the work emotionally rather than descriptively.
The horizontal format enhances its immersive quality, making it an ideal focal point within a contemporary interior or collection.
Dimension: Framed 25 inches x 21 inches
