Col Urrutia - Reflection

Reflection is a series of paintings that focuses on the mystical phenomenon of life itself, and the resilience of nature flourishing against forces of opposition. The subjects are depicted thriving in artificially lit and inorganic environments, alluding to nature’s triumphant ability to overpower human imposition. 

These florals are presented in a way that is unabashed and glorious, in the dark of the night and in quiet corners, teeming with light and shimmering colour. They seem to exist in a transcendent state, blissfully unaware of the world in which they find themselves. 

Captured at the peak of their bloom, they bring attention to the ever fleeting present, and the mystery to be found therein.
