The Departure Painting

Series "Nostalgia" It had been 4 years since I last went to Buenos Aires to see my family (family, friends, loved ones). I spent a month eagerly waiting to go, and I fully enjoyed the 20 days I was there. When I returned, I painted this series. It was two months of yearning for those encounters that flew by, and who knows when they will happen again. As usual, I first paint, express on the canvas, and then realize what those images mean to me. I realize that the palette I chose represents the colors that come to mind when I think of the Río de la Plata. They are the colors of “mate”, earth, and the “hornero” bird. "The Departure" It's the toughest moment, the day when the journey ends and you have to leave. You feel that tearing in your soul once again. I thought I could represent it with a woman swimming forward (in the Western sense, from left to right), but she turns her head and looks back. She leaves a trail, fragments of herself floating behind. -------- "La Partida" Es el momento más duro, es el día que se termina el viaje y te tenés que ir. Volvés a sentir ese desgarro en el alma. Pensé que podía representarlo con una mujer nadando hacia adelante (en el sentido occidental de izquierda a derecha) pero que saca la cabeza y mira para atrás. Va dejando un rastro, quedan pedacitos suyos flotando.
