Mª Assumpció Raventós — Dreamlike landscape with textures — Mixed media

A light surface brings together geometric forms, fine lines and areas of texture. The whites and greys of this composition by Maria Assumpció Raventós contrast with earth tones and small blue, green and reddish accents.

Forms suggesting architecture

The irregular central field stands out against a dark border. Rectangles, diagonals and lines within it may suggest openings or fragments of a building, without depicting a particular place. The dark forms on the left are balanced by four rectangular shapes on the right.

Colour and texture

The light layers reveal areas of ochre, grey and black beneath them. Reddish lines outline some edges, while small blue and green touches interrupt the muted palette. The contrast between covered surfaces and areas of visible weave gives the composition relief and invites close observation.

The Taller Note

The composition combines two ways of constructing space: the dark rectangles suggest depth, while the fine lines remain on the surface. A black diagonal crosses the lower area, disrupting the stability of the vertical forms. Small strokes of colour connect these planes without fully enclosing their outlines.
