Chromatic Memory (2025) Original Oil Painting by Maria Romano

70 x 80 x 2cm (unframed)

1 Artist Review

£1,248.7

“Chromatic Memory” evolves into a more radical, contemporary iteration, where the figure fractures through visual interference and bold color fields. The face both emerges and dissolves within a system of glitches, overlays, and digital cuts, while the dominant red acts as both emotional field and structural force. Painterly texture coexists with elements of disruption, creating a tension between presence and absence, identity and dissolution. The work pushes portraiture beyond representation toward a more unstable, current visual language.

The edges are varnished so the painting can be hung without a frame; the surface is finished with a satin retouching varnish, making it resistant to UV rays and the passage of time. The signature is present on both the front and back of the canvas, and the painting is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.

About
I’m a figurative artist who tells quiet stories through faces, flowers, symbols, and soft shadows. My painting begins with inner dialogue — each piece is a trace of what I’ve... Read more
