The composition unfolds as a pictorial collage in which graphic marks, figurative fragments and barely suggested architectures coexist in a dynamic balance between order and expressive freedom.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe canvas is traversed by arches and architectural structures reminiscent of squares, porticos and ideal cities. These elements create a kind of visual stage where stylized human figures and children's faces appear, symbolic evocations of childhood as a place of authenticity, dreams and spontaneity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe mixed technique used by the artist — combining oil, charcoal, recycled paper and India ink — creates a surface rich in material layers. The applied papers emerge as fragments of urban memory, while the charcoal marks trace nervous and vital lines that guide the viewer's gaze.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe color palette alternates intense reds, deep purples and vibrant blues, creating emotional contrasts that amplify the narrative tension of the work. Color is not merely a decorative element, but becomes an emotional structure: bright fields and overlapping transparencies suggest movement, energy and life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe City of Children\u003c\/em\u003e does not represent a real city, but a symbolic city, constructed through the free and visionary gaze of childhood. It is a space where memory, imagination and reality intertwine, reminding the viewer that every city truly lives only through the people who inhabit it and the dreams that traverse it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOriginality and authenticity\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOriginal artwork already created, unique piece.
