About this artwork
This abstract-figurative painting captures a swimmer in slow motion, viewed from an overhead perspective. The composition is dominated by a vibrant, textured field of deep and bright blues, rendered with texture that transmits the calmness of the waters. The figure juxtaposes turquoise and ochre tones, suggesting the body as it placidly navigates the surface and the effect of light on wet skin. The expressive application of paint emphasizes the momentary…
interaction between the human form and the water element. The contrast between the saturated blue background and the light, heavily textured figure captures the eye and invites calm contemplation.

Marcos Buarque de Hollanda, born in Rio de Janeiro, works primarily with drawing on paper and canvas, skillfully wielding nib, Indian ink, markers, and water. His technique celebrates expressive, fuzzy lines and an ever-evolving interplay of color and trace, blending elements of drawing and painting. Inspired by the relationship between people and places, his art immerses viewers in evocative scenes where human presence transforms and is transformed by the environment. His works invite you to pause, drawing you into a breathless, timeless contemplation.
