Attention! Start session for bidding for this lot.

SUB_FGEW2

The artArtwork depicts two elderly men of Arab origin slowly ascending a seemingly endless street. Their heavy gait, far from merely reflecting the weariness of age, becomes a metaphor for life's journey. They move forward together, close to one another, symbolically supporting each other. Words are unnecessary: their gait expresses friendship, companionship, and solidarity, the certainty that the burden becomes lighter when shared. The street, which disappears without revealing its end, thus acquires a profound symbolic meaning, representing the path of existence, with its difficulties, uncertainties, and inevitable passage. The two old men do not face this climb alone, but together, reminding us that, sometimes, what truly matters is not reaching the end, but having someone by our side along the way.

  • Carmen López Martínez, (Lalla): "The Time of Lemons" (2024)

    In this still life, I explore the quiet beauty of the everyday through lemons still attached to their leaves. An intense contrast of light and shadow models the volumes, highlighting the vibrancy of the fruit against the progressive rigidity of the leaves that are beginning to dry. This barely perceptible transformation becomes the true protagonist of the composition. The Artwork not only represents lemons, but also the inevitable passage of time on matter. The tension between the freshness of the fruit and the fragility of the leaves creates a visual dialogue laden with symbolism, where the light reveals every texture and every fold with great intensity. Through an expressive brushstroke and a personal interpretation of reality, the painting invites us to contemplate the beauty that resides in the natural processes of change, reminding us that life and time leave their mark even on the simplest elements.
