Miquel Barceló — Gran Ciuno (Large Kitchen)
Miquel Barceló

Gran Ciuno (Large Kitchen)

A dynamic and textured composition, Barceló's *Gran Ciuno (Large Kitchen)* pulsates with the raw, organic energy that defines his distinctive visual language. Through the rich interplay of etching, aquatint, drypoint, and carborundum, the artist conjures a densely layered scene in which food, vessels, and the residue of culinary life emerge from deep, earthy tones and roughly worked surfaces. The combination of techniques creates a tactile, almost visceral quality, evoking the primal abundance and controlled chaos of the kitchen as both a physical and symbolic space.

Medium
Etching with aquatint, drypoint and carborundum in colours, on wove paper, with full margins,
