This intriguing artwork by Paraguayan artist Selmo Martinez features an abstract composition with fluid, organic shapes and delicate line work. The piece is rendered primarily in shades of black and gray, with a mix of bold ink strokes and soft, cloud-like forms. The central circular element draws the eye, creating a focal point amidst the more delicate and wispy elements. Handwritten notes and inscriptions add a personal and poetic layer to the piece, offering a glimpse into the artist’s thoughts or inspirations. The ornate black and gold frame complements the artwork’s enigmatic and refined presentation.

Provenance: Private Collection from the estate of former Ecuadorian Ambassador Marcos Francisco Suescum Otatti and his wife, Tatiana Marin Orama.

Medium:  Ink drawing on paper

Dimensions:  H: 14in x W:11in Approx.
