- Abstract
"Ensō - Circulo quebrado" is a compelling abstract painting that exemplifies principles of abstract expressionism. Crafted with vibrant Acrylic paints, it depicts a broken circle—an Ensō—symbolizing tradition and imperfection. The bold, spontaneous strokes evoke emotion and inner exploration, characteristic of abstract expressionism. This artwork invites viewers to interpret the incomplete, fragmented circle within the context of Zen philosophy, blending contemporary abstract art with deeper spiritual meaning.
