the field and the city 20 Painting

Painting: Acrylic on Canvas. "The field and the city" series represents the tension between humans and nature to conquest the same space, there are two creators, each one has their own way to fill the surface. The spontaneous curved lines of the nature is opposed against the logical and straight lines of the "civilization”. The straight line is the imprint of the human being, of its culture of conquest and possession, it is installed in the middle of the virgin nature, it traces wire fences, routes, limits, borders, dividing walls, streets, buildings ... it arranges space. As a revenge, nature sows its seeds between bricks, erases the paths with dry leaves and dust, tangles climbers blurring neglected buildings, breaks apart floors with its roots, ... disassembling straight lines, curves winning over. Nature and human beings struggle to dominate trying to win over, control, tame each other. Why should any of them win? *** Note: This is an unstretched canvas, it is painted on its entire surface, it can be stretched on a wooden frame, in this case consider subtracting a few centimeters from the canvas.
