Yuni R. P - XL - El Frasco de Cristal

YUNI R. P.'s painting is built from a direct, physical relationship with matter. Working mainly with oil on canvas and discarding the brush in favor of the spatula, the artist develops a pictorial surface where color is not limited to describing the image: it gains volume, direction, and movement. The spatula allows him to deposit, drag, and layer the oil through broad, decisive gestures. From this process arise surfaces of considerable material and chromatic richness, where colors remain partially on the canvas without completely losing their individuality. This feature is one of the most recognizable elements of his language: deep blues, turquoises, solar yellows, oranges, reds, and whites appear facing and interwoven in a palette of great luminosity. Although his production includes landscapes, gardens, figures, and urban scenes, in recent years the sea has become one of the main axes of his painting. Sailboats, ports, shores, reflections, and horizons repeatedly appear, transformed by a gaze that privileges sensory experience over meticulous description. His residence in Havana and daily proximity to the coastal landscape thus find a natural reflection in his imagination. Formally, his work dialogues with certain principles of Impressionism and Post-Impressionism: capturing changing light, chromatic fragmentation, and the intention to convey an impression rather than a photographic reproduction of the subject. In some of his seascapes there can even be an affinity with the luminist tradition of Joaquín Sorolla, particularly in the interest in the glare of the water and in the way whites, blues, and yellows turn the marine surface into a space of light. It is not a imitation, but an affinity within a long tradition of artists fascinated by the relationship between sea, color, and luminosity. However, YUNI R. P. moves that tradition toward a more materially emphatic painting. The imprint of the spatula remains visible and turns each color plane into a small structure. Seen up close, the painting may verge on abstraction; viewed from a distance, those blotches and directions reassemble as sails, reflections, vegetation, figures, or horizons. That tension between abstraction and representation is one of the most attractive aspects of his work. Photographs can hardly convey this character fully. In front of the canvas, the relief of the oil and the changes produced by light incidence give the works a presence and a depth that exceed the two-dimensional image. The result is an immediate, vital, and recognizable painting, characterized by strong chromatic energy and by a deeply optimistic view of the landscape.

Please check the original photographs to verify the actual condition of the work.” This still life in impasto style stands out for its rich texture and spatula technique, achieving a three-dimensional, dynamic relief to each petal of the wildflowers forming the arrangement. A transparent bottle of blue-green glass serves as the central vase, capturing the reflections and nuances of light that contrast against a background evoking rustic wooden boards in soft tones of blue and violet. The color palette is exuberant and festive, combining intense magentas, delicate pinks, violets, and warm tones in the center of the flowers, conveying an immediate sense of freshness, warmth, and vitality in a balanced and luminous composition."
