B. Morah - Bosque Ingrávido 164 XL (No Reserve)

WEIGHTLESS FOREST 164 is part of a series inspired by Magritte and contemporary surrealism. This work is part of a series that brings the natural and the impossible together in a single vision. In “Weightless Forest,” the trunks float without roots, freed from the gravity that binds them to the ground. The landscape becomes a stage for the improbable: a forest sustained not by the laws of physics, but by the rules of imagination. The reference to Magritte is no coincidence: like him, the artist invites us to contemplate a world where the everyday becomes strange, and the impossible, self-evident. The trees suspended in midair force us to rethink the concept of the organic and the stable, while the play of color—with electric blues, incandescent reds, and deep shadows—intensifies the dreamlike atmosphere. This series raises essential questions: What happens when we take the weight away from nature? Can weightlessness reveal another dimension of the landscape, one that is more emotional than physical? “Weightless Forest” is both a metaphor and a provocation, an act of visual liberation that defies logic to reveal a new poetic space. “Weightless Forest” already evokes a powerful image: floating trees that challenge not only physics, but also our perception of what a forest should be. -About the artist: The artist has exhibited her work in Almería, Spain; Dortmund, Germany; Porto Alegre, Brazil; the Colegio de España in Paris; Art & Planét Gallery, Paris, France; Los Angeles, California, USA; Montreal, Canada; Vienna, Austria; Barcelona, Spain; New York, USA, among other places. -Technical details of the work: Acrylic on high-quality cotton canvas Dimensions: 100 cm x 75 cm (+ unpainted margin) Signed on the back and protected with varnish Original, hand-signed certificate of authenticity -Disclaimer: Colors may vary slightly depending on your monitor settings and the lighting in the space where the photograph was taken.
