Kea
A line drawing: the figures of the city, before the colour arrives.
Kea
Sketches on paper, with a fork among the shapes. Everything begins in pencil.
Kea
A hand holds the sketch, one more detail of the drawing. It is studied up close before painting.
Kea
The full drawing, the city stacked on a single sheet. That is the map of the painting.
Kea
The white canvas, ready on the wall, with warm light and candles around it. The night is about to begin.
Kea
Painting at night, behind the glass. The street can watch the painting being born.
Kea
Bare feet and trousers splashed with paint. The floor gets painted too.
Kea
The finished painting in the studio, full of colour, with the table of paint pots beside it.
Kea
A calm look at the painting, barefoot, the brush still in hand.
Kea
In black and white, sitting on the floor among the splashes, beside the two works of the night.
Kea
The lit window seen from the street: two paintings and the «32» on the wall.
Kea
A text accompanies the work: the challenge that night was to paint KEA, the city two hundred years later.
Kea
Another text recalls the earlier work, SUA, painted live on the 31st of August.
