A Vida em Azul 1

In Life in Blue 1, Antonio Carlos Barro expands his approach to the theme of introspection and spirituality, this time using a rectangular canvas, creating a distinct visual dynamic compared to its complementary piece, Life in Blue 2. The deep blue continues to serve as the central backdrop, symbolizing serenity and the vastness of the spiritual universe, but in this piece, it is vibrant and interspersed with expressive brushstrokes of pink, red, and green. Each added color reflects nuances of emotion and life: pink evokes tenderness, red suggests passion or sacrifice, and green points to hope and renewal. The elongated shape of the canvas invites the viewer on a more linear and continuous journey, reinforcing the idea that life is a path of constant evolution. With his spiritual sensitivity, Barro transforms this work into a dialogue between the human and the divine, where the colors are not merely visual but imbued with profound meaning.
