OIL on canvas. 60 cm x 80 cm.

In Transition, Mau Pavón establishes a chromatic dialogue ranging from the warmest hues of the spectrum (reds, oranges, yellows) to a serene sky blue at the top, suggesting a symbolic journey from the earthly to the ethereal. The wavy arrangement of these color bands creates a sense of constant motion, as if the canvas surface itself were vibrating and marking a continuous passage from one state to another.

Standing out is the female figure in a steely blue tone, wearing a conical helmet that extends into infinity. This extension functions like an “antenna” or projection, evoking the quest for a higher plane or connection to a different dimension. The small flowers sprouting from her head allude to the fertility of ideas, to the mind’s capacity to germinate new thoughts even amid transition.

Meanwhile, we see a hand and violet geometric fragments that seem to be disintegrating or reassembling. This visual device sets up a counterpoint between the organic figure and the fragmented element, emphasizing the tension between what endures and what changes. Violet, a color associated with spiritual transformation, reinforces the idea of an internal process of change.

The clouds, suspended in midair by thin threads, reinforce the notion of lightness and buoyancy, yet they also suggest a certain fragility. They appear to be delicately balanced, reminding us that transitional processes can be both liberating and fraught with uncertainty.

The work revolves around the idea of personal metamorphosis and adaptation to new circumstances. The viewer witnesses a moment of transformation: the female figure opens herself to the unknown while the violet fragments float and rearrange themselves in space. The colorful backdrop, shifting in tone, alludes to the different emotional or psychological stages we pass through in life.

In Transition, Mau Pavón poetically synthesizes the concept of continuous change. The harmony between warm and cool tones, along with the arrangement of organic and geometric figures, creates a dreamlike scene that invites reflection on the constant flow of existence. This piece is not merely a display of technical and chromatic virtuosity but rather stands as a bridge between the human experience of uncertainty and the promise of renewal. With it, Pavón reaffirms his ability to symbolically portray the multiple facets of the human condition.
