This piece of material art stands out for its strong chromatic contrast and organic relief, exploring the tension between opposing forces through form and texture.
Artist: Constanza Tubio.
Studio: Panterasama Studio.
Technique: Mixed media with sculptural relief in modeling paste or clay.
Materials: Acrylic paint, pigments, and a textured finish with selective varnish.
Dimensions: Medium format (approx. 30x40 cm) with relief up to 10 cm high.
Central Element: A sculpted hand in relief with a rough texture in earth and grayish tones that appears to emerge from the base material.
Background Contrast: The panel is divided by a dramatic contrast: on the left, a deep, glossy crimson red; on the right, a matte, highly textured charcoal black.
Frame and Border: The work lacks a traditional frame, using the modeling paste itself in cream and white tones to create an irregular border that contains the composition.
Atmosphere: The gestural white brushstrokes flowing from the hand to the top suggest movement, energy, or a transition between the two chromatic states.
