- Infanta Deconstructed
Original artwork description
In this large-scale contemporary work, the iconic Velázquez “Infanta” is reimagined through a vivid, deconstructed lens. Layers of neon yellow, acidic green, and a flash of fuchsia dismantle the Baroque icon into an almost holographic presence. The figure hovers between memory and disappearance, fashion and power, childhood and myth.
Painted in mixed media on canvas (120 × 160 × 3 cm), this piece becomes an unmistakable statement for collectors who favor bold color, conceptual depth, and cultural references. It feels both historical and futuristic — elegant yet ruptured — and holds the room with a cinematic glow.
This work is part of the ongoing series “Infanta’s Destruction”, in which historical portraiture collapses into abstraction and post-figuration. The result is a radical, contemporary take that speaks to identity, beauty, and the dismantling of tradition.
Ideal for design-forward interiors, contemporary art collections, and large spaces seeking a striking centerpiece.
