Atlantic 17:46 – Process

Creative Process: Atlántico 17:46

The Atlantic Ocean along the coast of Cádiz possesses a unique power, capable of transforming the landscape into a vibrant composition of color and movement. In Atlántico 17:46, a large-scale artwork measuring 200 x 100 cm, inspiration stems from a day of intense swell under a clear sky, where the wind set the rhythm of the waves.

In this setting, the vividness of the blues and greens became the central focus of the piece. This work seeks to transfer the raw energy of nature onto the canvas, capturing the light, the breeze, and the power of the water suspended in time. The video below showcases the creative process behind this artwork, from the initial brushstrokes of color to the details that bring the swell of the Cádiz coastline to life.
