The Futbol Series

The ‘Futbol Series’ are contemporary surrealistic paintings that refer to ‘The Beautiful Game’: Football. It’s known worldwide for its passionate love to kick the ball and score a goal! On the field, each country is represented by its uniform and its colors. These works present a moment in a football battle over the ball, represented by the uniforms only. The absence of bodies brings the focus to the drama, the feeling, and the passion of the team itself without any particular player’s name in mind. It is all about the game, the team, your country’s colors and your flag. The very detailed painted uniforms in movement over a flat, solid, and bright background give a sense of suspension in time, a floating sensation like the state of mind in which a true fan or a player experiences every instant of the game.
