El Ejido | Ikella Alonso

"Solitude is a phenomenon that affects painting. It is woven in solitude, starting from a void. The hollowness of the canvas. And you prepare to take a leap. A high jump, freefall into painting. Solitude of height, a series of landscapes with a vertical gaze. The satellite captures the territory, the painter's homeland. With its fields ploughed by color. Cut with thick brushstrokes of matter, which daub the canvas's terrain. Impastoed fields of pigment. Iridescent borders. And again, solitude. The passenger who sits by the window and glimpses the immensity of the landscape. And from the highest point succumbs to nature." -Ikella Alonso
