In this captivating work, Mercedes Gordo captures the serenity and majesty of a green lagoon in the middle of spring. The vibrant colors of the water and the surrounding landscape are brought to life by bright shades of greens and blues. Natural lighting and delicate nuances create a magical atmosphere that invites quiet contemplation. Meticulous details, from the reflection of the sun on the surface of the water to the texture of the rocks and foliage, transport the viewer to a serene corner of nature. This work not only depicts a landscape, but also offers an emotional refuge and a deep connection to the beauty of the natural environment.
Art has always been my calling. I believe there is something deeply transformative in creating, in shaping matter and turning it into a personal and magical space, channeling a unique sensitivity to observe and interpret the world. Painting is my language; a way to communicate and, at the same time, positively isolate myself from everyday reality. Through each brushstroke, I find a way to express emotions and feelings that I could hardly communicate otherwise. Painting allows me to reveal the most sensitive facet of my being and share my own vision of the world. Thus, my works seek to convey not only emotions, but also messages and reflections on our existence, social challenges and life itself. My artistic career began in realism, focused on landscapes and still lifes. Over time, I have explored more contemporary techniques and styles, creating a fusion between the classic and the modern. In each work, my goal is for the design, color and texture to awaken deep emotions in the viewer and open a space for reflection.
