José Bechara — Triptico #5 Sem Titolo
José Bechara

Triptico #5 Sem Titolo

Three large-scale canvases unite to form a raw and visceral composition, where layers of industrial materials — including rust, pigment, and fabric — are embedded into the surface, creating a richly textured interplay of decay and transformation. Bechara's gestural process leaves visible traces of physical action, evoking both the passage of time and the tension between control and chance. The earthy, oxidized palette draws the viewer into a meditative dialogue between matter and memory.

mixed media on canvas, triptych
