THE TREE OF WISHES

2013, 90cm x 130cm |Oil on canvas, Copper leaf.

With its singular color harmonies and mysterious aura,”TREE OF WISHES” is a mixture of elements of Japanese culture, “tori”, red wooden door, which indicates sacred area. In Japan, it is located at the entrance of the temples “; Ozojisan”, small stone statue located to the right, symbolizes protection of the walker; “Kamishimo”, folds of white paper that hang from the neck of the trunk, symbolize something sacred and protection …

To give life to this work I have used copper leaf, for its oxidation and its inevitable change of color.

The sea represents the welcome to anyone who wants to ask for your wish.

The result of meticulous and delicate artwork, leading to a world of peace and connection with the essence and the innermost desires of each. This work has a great power that can clear the mind and the heart.

This work was created especially to present at the exhibition to be held at the Spanish Embassy in Tokyo, on the occasion of the “Spain-Japan Dual Year 2013-2014, Fourth Centenary of Relations”.

It‘s a work that reflects the essence of two painters, inspired by Ogata Korin’s “RED AND WHITE PLUMS”,Of the Japanese classical art school Rimpa, and Klimt’s “THE TREE OF LIFE”.
