In Principio y Fin [Beginning and End], the expansive horizontal composition flows with soft blues, greens, and touches of lavender, evoking the fluidity of water or air. The elongated format allows for continuous movement across the canvas, where swirling abstract forms suggest cycles of creation and dissolution.

In Principio y Fin [Beginning and End], the expansive horizontal composition flows with soft blues, greens, and touches of lavender, evoking the fluidity of water or air. The elongated format allows for continuous movement across the canvas, where swirling abstract forms suggest cycles of creation and dissolution. The interplay of lighter and darker tones creates a rhythmic balance, as if the painting is breathing. Like many of Aya’s works, this piece explores the interaction of form and light, with abstract shapes emerging and dissolving, capturing the essence of perpetual motion and change.
The undulating lines and soft gradients in this piece evoke the natural rhythms of artists like Roberto Matta, whose surreal landscapes often fused abstraction with cosmic themes. In comparison to Aya’s other works, like El Jardín de Cecilia, where the forms evoke natural growth, Principio y Fin feels more universal, hinting at metaphysical ideas of beginning and end, cycles, and eternity. The balance between soft color transitions and abstract shapes creates a contemplative atmosphere, where the viewer is invited to reflect on the concepts of time, movement, and the infinite.
