Leonardo Nierman is one of Mexico's leading contemporary artists. His non-objective depiction of natural subjects combines associative abstraction with modernism. Furthermore, he uses his scientific background in physics, mathematics, psychology of color, and the harmony of dynamic and static space to develop his interpretations of color and light. Nierman's diverse practice encompasses painting, sculpture, and even tapestries.

His works highlight nature, the cosmos, and spirituality through a vibrant color palette and apparent movement. Furthermore, his practice takes inspiration from nature and Classical music, as both art and music embody tonality and rhythms with high-intensity and resting areas. Nierman's paintings portray musical balance and raw dissonance of natural forces. And his sculptures capture movement and harmony through highly reflective surfaces.

Flame embodies Nierman's characteristic dramatic flair in sculpture. Through extreme precision and attention to detail, Nierman captures the beauty of movement. This sculpture is an abstract interpretation of flames, waves, or wings. Furthermore, the polished surface of the white onyx used alludes to fluidity.

Flame includes a gallery certificate of authenticity. The work is signed "Nierman". Furthermore, the artwork is in very good condition overall. Please request a condition report for details.
