Agustín Alamán - Hiroshima 17

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

In Hiroshima 17, Agustín Alamán constructs an image of strong symbolic intensity where matter, gesture, and emptiness dialogue in a tense and deeply evocative balance. The composition, marked by an almost totemic structure and by the eruption of incandescent reds against a dark background, alludes to the fragility of memory and the persistent traces of violence in collective consciousness. Alamán combines organic strokes, eroded textures, and ritualistic signs to generate an unsettling and contemplative atmosphere, placing the viewer before a work that oscillates between the ancestral and the contemporary, between destruction and the possibility of symbolic reconstruction.
