ABOUT THE WORK

Highly recognized for his prized works of color harmonies and elegant, sophisticated cubistic forums of genre themes - Oscar Zalameda used the daily work of vendors as his muses for this piece in interpreting the daily lives of his subjects through the plentitude of the prismatic ray. The artist included bursts of contrasting colors to add vibrancy and placidity to the scene, wherein he employed gem-toned planes of colors that generate abstract relationships and color harmonies. Zalameda perfectly portrayed a curated reality, posing his subjects in a graceful tableau, by being generous in the truth of their weighted labor.
