Paintings n2, n3, n5, n4 from the Impermanence series, 2024

Rosario Briones  

This artwork is a vibrant quadriptych, blending abstract expressionism with dynamic color contrasts. Each panel presents a unique splash of color, from earthy browns and greens to vivid reds, blues, and yellows. These hues blend seamlessly, creating eye-catching transitions and suggesting movement. The use of negative space is masterful, allowing the colors to breathe and interact organically. The top left panel features fluid strokes in muted tones, while the top right explodes with bold pinks and yellows. The bottom left combines soft whites with striking reds and greens, while the bottom right showcases dynamic blues and golds. This composition evokes a sense of chaotic harmony, inviting viewers to explore individual sections while appreciating the cohesive whole. The artist’s skillful manipulation of color and form results in a captivating visual symphony, balancing intensity with subtlety, and fostering an engaging visual dialogue.

Signed by the artist

In the Kingdom of Transience, everything is temporary, subject to constant change.

Everything is unstable and volatile like the wind. The precariousness of our existence reminds us that nothing is definitive. The mutability of our souls makes us grow and evolve. The volatility of our lives leads us to seek stability, but impermanence is the essence of life and of our being.

Buenos Aires, 1974. Rosario Briones is an artist and art teacher. Graduated from the Prilidiano Pueyrredón National School of Fine Arts in 2002. She took post graduate seminars at the Ernesto de la Cárcova Higher School of Fine Arts. She has also attended numerous art workshops.

In her work, the path of his body becomes shapes, and the shapes, an indication of the artistic process, of the material choreography directed by the emotion of the body, where it hides and an experience of intimate order is glimpsed.

The fluidity of her paintings finds no structure. Exploring the same procedure in different supports such as papers and fabrics. The artist is interested in the infinite possibilities that offer her the material, its porosities, weaves, thicknesses and different capacities of absorption, they return images that are not in her head. Signed for a game of tensions, a fight between forces, given by the accumulations of pigment, the transparencies, the forms and their search for balance. Sometimes controlled and other times more chance, they become a record of a living materiality.  She is part of the Grupo Charco collective, an artistic research group made up of seven artists who together develop collective and individual actions.
