About this artwork
In Baobab, I explore the idea of a tree that is not represented, yet is recognizable. I don't seek to illustrate its form, but to evoke its presence: the solidity of the trunk, the verticality that sustains the landscape, the feeling of rootedness and accumulated time.
The colored pieces function as planes that rest upon one another, almost like mineral blocks. The luminous green, the deep black, and the cream and aquamarine tones create a contrast… that greatly interests me: the interplay between vitality and shadow, between the organic and the constructed. The small accent of orange acts as a fissure, an unexpected light that breaks the overall calm.
I like to think of this painting as a kind of contemporary totem. A memory of the baobab: powerful, silent, protective. A simple structure that contains within itself the idea of resilience and life.

David Albert (Spain, 1975) is a contemporary painter based in Catalonia. The Mediterranean, the Ebro Delta, and the mineral light of the coast are his permanent workspace.
His current practice is articulated in three series: Mirages —landscapes of memory constructed by glazes, sanding and impasto—, Géométries en Calme —where geometry learns to be silent— and Architecture of Silence, a vertical exploration of structure as a chromatic score.
She works in acrylic on canvas, in formats between 50×50 and 150×150 cm. Her palette—deep turquoises, oxidized ochres, titanium whites, bituminous blacks—translates her Mediterranean origin into a material and contained language, where color is not applied: it is discovered.
Her work has been exhibited at international art fairs (Art3F Bordeaux, Luxembourg, Barcelona, Milan) and in galleries such as Van Gogh Madrid and Petit Atelier Lleida. Her work is included in Singulart's curatorial selections due to its technical and material coherence.
