In this evocative painting, Mercedes Gordo invites us on an introspective journey through a lonely boat on the ocean at dawn. The subtle shades of blue that dominate reflect the calm of the sea and the sky, while the soft reflections of the dawn light create an atmosphere of tranquility and hope. The composition manages to convey an intimate connection with nature, evoking a sense of inner peace and contemplation. This work is more than a representation of a landscape; it is a visual meditation on solitude and rebirth in a new day.
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.
