About this artwork
Don Goyo explores the relationship between humanity and the natural world, particularly focusing on the themes of power, destruction, and reverence. The volcano, as a central figure, is not just a physical entity but a spiritual one, embodying both the creative and destructive forces of nature. The surreal elements, such as the human figure and submerged ruins, suggest a blending of myth and reality, where the past, present, and future coexist in…
a mystical landscape.
The painting invites viewers to reflect on the forces that shape our world—both natural and supernatural—and our place within that world. It suggests that, despite our efforts to build and create, we are ultimately subject to the whims of nature, which can both nurture and obliterate.
This work is a powerful example of how I use surrealism to convey deep philosophical and existential themes, inviting contemplation on the mysteries of the universe and humanity’s place within it.

Patrick Faure, a contemporary surrealist painter from Monaco, elegantly mixes traditional oil paint methods with his rich cultural foundations of Impressionist and metaphysical art. His masterful employment of vibrant colors and meticulous detail creates thought-provoking, symbolic compositions, unifying classical painting elements with modern, post-human imagery. His works challenge societal norms, inciting deep, philosophical existential questions, critiquing our inherent fragility in an indifferent cosmos, and blurring reality with the subconscious.
