Agustín Alamán - Hiroshima 13

Mixed media on paper and wood.
Signed by the artist.
Dimensions: 70 x 52 cm.

In Hiroshima 13, Agustín Alamán constructs an image of strong emotional and symbolic tension, where the human figure appears overwhelmed by matter, color, and painterly gesture. The composition, dominated by intense reds and deep blacks, refers to a fragmented memory that oscillates between the corporeal and the traumatic, evoking vulnerability, violence, and resistance. The dense texture and incisive strokes generate an almost ritual presence, while the frontal view of the figure confronts the viewer with a visual experience of great intensity. The work is thus situated in an expressionistic and contemporary territory where painting functions as a space for memory, impact, and reflection.
