Ovoide horizontal is a Costa Rica ocean abstract.
Christian Porras Piedra’s Costa Rica ocean abstract called Ovoide horizontal, a mesmerizing journey through the artist’s multifaceted vision of his homeland. As a visual artist, composer, vocalist, and musician, Porras Piedra draws inspiration from the rich cultural tapestry of Costa Rica, particularly the landscapes of Guanacaste.
His abstract style is a symphony of full, curved forms and billowing lines, echoing the dynamic rhythms of the Costa Rican landscape. Music serves as a guiding force in Porras Piedra’s creative process, as he translates song lyrics describing places, landscapes, and characters into bold, block-colored paintings.
Using a unique technique of applying ovoid brushstrokes, Porras Piedra weaves together elements of nature—from rivers and trees to beaches—with human figures that seamlessly blend into their surroundings. Each brushstroke is a testament to the artist’s sense of musicality, rhythm, and movement, creating a visual symphony that resonates with viewers.
At the heart of Porras Piedra’s work lies a deep connection to the land and its people. Through his art, he invites us to contemplate the beauty of the Costa Rican landscape and the everyday experiences of its inhabitants, capturing the essence of Latin American life with warmth and vitality.
