THE JOCKER (2025)Mixed-media painting
by Xavi Castel
£781.47
Original artwork description
The shellac base provides a glossy, aged finish, while the dark ink enhances the dramatic contours of the face. The gold leaf, applied in select areas, imparts an almost mystical glow, contrasting with the bluish-green patina that envelops the figure.
The overall effect suggests a fusion of the organic and the dreamlike, as if the character were petrified in a moment of bliss or eternal torment, floating in an undefined space between the earthly and the divine. The rich texture and choice of materials evoke a sense of sacred art worn by time, like a forgotten reliquary lost in the abyss.
