From the Mexican Ryōan-ji Series. Ryōan-ji is the Japanese Zen temple in Kyoto, a monastery that gave rise to the idea of ​​the purely abstract Zen garden that inspired this series Francisco Larios’ works are done by hand with hundreds of layers of gold leaf. The artist’s goal is to allow the work to age along with the collector, which is why some works will appear unbalanced in color. Parts of the work will have different tones, burnish spots, or small, soft cracks.

* Francisco Larios works with painting, open concept drawing and 3D modeling software. In this series of works, postmodern influences are recognized by simplified forms, lines and sacred geometry. works are done by hand with hundreds of layers of gold leaf. The artist’s goal is to allow the work to age along with the collector, which is why some works will appear unbalanced on the color. Parts of the work will have different tones, burnish spots, or small, soft cracks. Francisco Larios practices painting, open-concept drawing and the use of software to create two and three-dimensional visual environments. In his imaginary, the post modern condition is achieved in terms that contemporary culture is the starting point for the elaboration of sceneries that manifest the return to sacred references, philosophical themes and immemorial fabulations. In Larios' work landscape is treated conceptually, sometimes, as the space where studies of the dreamlike, the bond between human beings and their surroundings, and the nature of objects develop; in other cases as the practice of graphic representation of mathematical, physical and musical principles which part from the idea of horizon as divisive line and as limit. Larios production is a poetic, ironic and reflexive exploration on the state of our relationship with faith, will and destiny.

This artwork is a striking example of geometric abstraction, framed in an elegant black and gold border. Dominated by metallic gold hues, it features precise, linear patterns that converge and diverge across the canvas, exuding a sense of order and sophistication. The composition is punctuated by subtle black shapes, including a prominent vertical strip and two smaller diamond forms, which add depth and contrast. The meticulous alignment of lines creates an illusion of movement, drawing the viewer's eye along its intricate pathways. The use of metallic tones not only enhances the visual impact but also imbues the piece with a timeless quality. This artwork stands out for its harmonious balance of form and color, reflecting a masterful interplay between simplicity and complexity. Its modern aesthetic and refined execution make it an exemplary piece in contemporary abstract art.
