B. Morah - Bosque Ingrávido 173 XL (No Reserve)

BOSQUE INGRÁVIDO 173 is part of a series inspired by Magritte and contemporary surrealism. This work is part of a series that sublimates the natural and the impossible in a single vision. In “Ligthweight Forest” (note: keep original title? The original uses “Bosque Ingrávido” as title; translate as “Weightless Forest”), the trunks float without roots, stripped of the gravity that binds them to the ground. The landscape becomes a stage for the improbable: a forest that does not hold to the laws of physics, but to the rules of imagination. The reference to Magritte is not incidental: like him, the artist invites us to contemplate a world where the everyday becomes strange, and the impossible, evident. The trees suspended in the air force us to rethink the concept of what is organic and stable, while the chromatic play —with electric blues, incandescent reds, and deep shadows— intensifies the dreamlike atmosphere. This series raises essential questions: What happens when we take the weight out of nature? Can weightlessness reveal another dimension of the landscape, one that is more emotional than physical? “Weightless Forest” is both a metaphor and a provocation, a visual liberation act that defies logic to reveal a new poetic space. “Weightless Forest” in itself evokes a powerful image: floating trees that challenge not only physics but also our perception of what a forest should be. -About the artist: The artist has exhibited her work in Almería, Spain; Dortmund, Germany; Porto Alegre, Brazil; Colegio de España in Paris; Galería Art & Planét, Paris, France; Los Angeles, California, USA; Montreal, Canada; Vienna, Austria; Barcelona, Spain; New York, USA, among others. -Technical details of the work: Acrylic on high-quality cotton canvas Dimensions: 100 cm x 75 cm (+ free margin) Signed on the back and protected with varnish Original certificate of authenticity signed by hand -Note: Colors may vary slightly depending on monitor settings and the lighting of the space where the photograph was taken.
