Sala used handmade paper from the emblematic Molí paperer de Ca l'Oliver (Sant Quintí de Mediona) as a support. This artisanal base, rich in textures, serves as a canvas for a mixed technique that integrates two-screen serigraphy (pink and blue), manual intervention with pastel in a range of intense colors (blues, yellows, reds, and greens), and a collage of ten handmade papers individually dyed by the artist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5\"\u003eThe composition stands out for its ethereal dynamism. The artist creates a background that suggests an atmospheric landscape, over which organic forms levitate. This combination of layers — serigraphic, pictorial, and the relief of the collage — gives the piece a tactile quality and a depth that standard graphic reproductions do not possess.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"6\"\u003eCollector's Value\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eGuaranteed Exclusivity:\u003c\/b\u003e This is a numbered print (5\/33), belonging to a very limited edition, making it a rare piece in the market.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eNotarized Certification:\u003c\/b\u003e The authenticity and detailed technical description are validated documentarily on the reverse with the signature and seal of Notary D.

The Ca l'Oliver paper has a character of its own that breathes through the applied color. Being professionally framed, the work maintains the integrity of the superimposed papers, which is vital for its proper conservation. It is, without a doubt, a designer piece that defines a space on its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"El taller del coleccionista","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54326621897037,"sku":null,"price":550.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0904\/1841\/3901\/files\/DSC_0250_c2c0f1e8-ec7b-40fd-aaf2-777961647daa.jpg?v=1784383977","url":"https:\/\/eltallerdelcoleccionista.com\/en\/products\/gerard-sala-paisatge-amb-fulles-al-vol-1995-tecnica-mixta","provider":"El taller del coleccionista","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
