Description

Introducing a monochrome xylography print by Adrián Arguedas, depicting a severed head lying on its side. This piece explores themes of mortality and existentialism through its stark imagery and meticulous execution. Arguedas presents raw emotion, contemplating the fragility of life and the inevitability of death.

Executed with precision and attention to detail, this xylography print captures the viewer’s gaze with its haunting and surreal portrayal of the human form. The monochrome palette enhances the intensity of the subject matter, drawing the viewer into a contemplative dialogue with the artwork.

Arguedas’ exploration of the human condition offers a thought-provoking experience. Concerned with the balance of contrasts, Arguedas explores dichotomies such as life vs death, tall vs small, and beauty vs ugliness. Additionally, the juxtaposition between the playful and the violent is a central theme, driven by an undercurrent of parody that imparts a critical dimension to his canvases, and reveals a marked European influence from artists such as Pieter Brueghel, Hieronymus Bosch and Edward Hopper.

Shipping: This artwork will be rolled for shipment.
