Echoes beneath (2026)Acrylic painting by Francesca Borgo

70 x 80 x 3cm (unframed) / 70 x 80cm (actual image size)

£1,513.84

This painting belongs to my Water Mountains series, where landscapes emerge through the meeting of solidity and flow — places where water and earth seem to exchange roles, and nothing is ever fully fixed.

Forms gather around a quiet centre, where weight and lightness meet. Light slowly rises through layered textures, revealing a landscape in gentle motion. Soft, flowing shapes drift across a nebulous ground, suggesting waves, ridges, or currents of air seen from a distance. Pale whites move through deeper greys and shadowed tones, creating a subtle tension between openness and density. The surface remains fluid yet structured, allowing forms to appear and dissolve rather than settle into a defined image.

Built with acrylic and natural sand, the texture holds both depth and lightness. Light is not imposed from above but emerges gradually through the material, shifting with distance and angle. This interplay between light and shadow creates a sense of continuous movement, as if the landscape were quietly reshaping itself over time.

For me, this work reflects a quiet kind of resilience. It speaks of transformation shaped not by force, but by patience, repetition, and time. Water does not rush the mountain; it returns, listens, and slowly reshapes it. In this way, the painting also becomes an inner landscape — a space where stillness and movement coexist, and where change unfolds gradually, almost without notice.
