Abstract
"Blanket with Tracks" is an Abstract painting that combines elements of Art informel with subtle symbolism. The composition features layered textures and muted tones, evoking a sense of warmth and tradition reminiscent of the Tió de Nadal, a Catalan Christmas log symbolizing rural customs. The organic forms suggest a connection to mythological stories and cultural practices across regions like Catalonia, Valencia, and Andorra. The piece's spontaneous application of paint emphasizes the Art informel style’s focus on emotion and improvisation, inviting viewers to explore the intersection of tradition and abstraction.
