About this artwork

In the painting "MARiiA" an emotional fusion between the abstract and the figurative is perceived, with the characteristic ability to capture the human essence. The figure of MARiiA, located in a corner of the work, stands out for its delicacy. His almond-shaped eyes convey a sense of shyness or reserve, as if he were protecting his inner world. Through them, a silent but palpable emotional depth is suggested.

The background of the work is an intense… mixture of creams and blacks, applied with a squeegee, creating dense textures and dramatic contrasts. The strokes seem to flow in an ordered chaos, symbolizing both light and shadow, the dynamism of what is revealed and what remains hidden.

MARiiA's face is bathed in light, radiating serene and pure happiness. Her expression is warm and sincere, which contrasts with the subtlety of her gaze, as if the joy she exudes was the result of an inner struggle defeated.

« I love to feel with our artistic duet the dance of our brushes accompanied by imaginative, colorful music within our stage that is a canvas. »

Her work explores contemporary themes such as identity, human connection, and environmental issues, using symbols and vibrant colors to capture the viewer's attention with her reflections.
What distinguishes Sastre's approach is the audacity of his chromatic palette and the expressive tension of his human figures.
Each canvas becomes a space for dialogue between the sensitive and the social, the personal and the collective.

He works with various media—oil, acrylic, ink—on multiple supports, from traditional canvas to cardboard, giving his works a texture and an almost tactile physical presence. His works exude a gestural force, marked by the movement of the line and the almost choreographic energy of the application of color, like a painted dance that invites the viewer to feel as much as to contemplate.
