Description
In Danza de Luna, Lorena Villalobos works in oil and cold wax with oil stick and silver foil, a river or wetland at night rendered in deep blue and teal, white marks scratched across the surface suggesting the movement of water and reed.
The silver foil catches light the way water does under a full moon — restless, fragmented, alive. It is moonlit landscape painting with genuine physical presence, the surface worked as hard as the subject demands.
Art historian and former Costa Rican Minister of Culture Carlos Francisco Echeverría has described her work as among the most significant to have emerged from the region in recent times. She is among twenty-six artists named as Modern and Contemporary Masters in Central American Modernism (Ford and Snider, 2018).
