Angel Otero — Montmartre
Angel Otero

Montmartre

Angel Otero's *Montmartre* is a richly textured work constructed from collaged oil paint skins layered onto canvas, creating a surface that feels simultaneously sculptural and painterly. The piece reflects Otero's signature process of peeling dried paint from glass and rearranging the resulting skins into fluid, abstract compositions. The work evokes a sense of memory and place, its cascading forms and luminous color suggesting the romantic, storied atmosphere of its Parisian namesake.
