Mermaid Games

A dive into color.

Mermaid Games is a work that conveys vitality and fluid movement. Its distinctive character lies in the choice of support: an oil painting on cardboard mounted onto a plywood panel that functions as an extended frame. Color is no longer confined to the pictorial core, but spills onto the surrounding structure in shades of pink and light blue, transforming the work into a subtly three-dimensional art object.

The work challenges the traditional boundaries of the classical frame. The central core—an oil painting on cardboard—is mounted on a plywood support that does not merely sustain the image but actively participates in the chromatic narrative. Pink and light-blue brushstrokes extend beyond the main pictorial surface, creating a sense of continuity and a subtle breaking of the “fourth wall.” A piece that brings together painting and craftsmanship, conceived for those seeking an alternative to the conventional framed canvas.
