Vimopar - Doris & Margaret Shaw, XL

Vimopar is a Spanish visual artist, PhD in art and research, with a consolidated career supported by awards and selections in the contemporary art field. His work combines figurative painting with image investigation and visual language. His work can be seen on the Instagram profile @molina.pardo, where he develops a broad practice that includes painting, animation and 3D printing, with long-duration processes. Parallelly, he has created the profile @vmp_justicia_pictorica, focused exclusively on painting, with access currently reserved for collectors and participants on Catawiki. This original work, created in 2026, forms part of a painting line particularly attractive to collectors for its direct character, its limited availability and its active circulation in the market. In these pieces, the artist concentrates the intensity of the process into immediate decisions, generating works with strong visual presence and a powerful plastic identity. Starting from portrait studies of Dod Procter (an American portrait painter, 1890-1972) he creates a mixed composition with modernist abstractions. It does not respond to a narrative or symbolic intention, but to visual laws — balance, tension, color and gesture — that allow the image to sustain itself. This approach places the work within a highly valued contemporary tradition, where painting asserts itself as an autonomous object. In this particular canvas the Major Arcana card 'Strength' is represented; in itself the depicted object already carries many narrative connotations, in general it is an optimistic painting. Its execution in concentrated times allows capturing a freshness and energy difficult to achieve in longer processes, which increases its interest within the current collector context. Executed with mixed media on canvas, the work combines acrylic, sanding with different grits, glazes with Liquin and final oil, achieving a surface rich in nuances and a solid, stable painterly finish. The shipment is made only with the rolled canvas, protected with bubble wrap and cardboard or a rigid support, guaranteeing its correct conservation during transport. A relevant opportunity to acquire an original work by an established artist, in an active production line with growing interest among collectors.
