#03399 Angel Planells

The composition presents a dreamlike landscape bathed in a vibrant blue sky punctuated by swirling clouds and dominated by a large, luminous celestial body resembling a moon or planet. The scene unfolds across several distinct planes, creating a sense of spatial ambiguity and surreal depth.
In the foreground, a woman stands before a peculiar structure that combines elements of a table and an animal form – perhaps a camel or rhinoceros. A sign affixed to this hybrid object bears text in an unfamiliar script, adding to the overall feeling of displacement and mystery. The woman is dressed in purple and appears to be observing something beyond the viewer’s perspective.
Further back, a couple rides atop a horse that seems to float amongst stylized clouds. The man, clad in a dark coat, leans towards the woman, who is draped in flowing fabric. Their posture suggests intimacy or perhaps an escape from some unseen constraint. The landscape surrounding them is barren and rocky, with formations reminiscent of desert topography.
A scattering of objects – including what appear to be shoes and a coin – are placed on a table-like surface near the foreground figure, further contributing to the sense of disjunction and symbolic weight. The placement of these items seems arbitrary, yet they contribute to the overall feeling that this is not a straightforward depiction of reality but rather an exploration of subconscious themes.
The painting’s subtexts likely revolve around concepts of desire, escape, and the search for meaning within a fragmented world. The celestial body looming overhead could represent aspiration or unattainable ideals. The unusual combination of familiar objects with fantastical elements suggests a commentary on the nature of perception and the subjective experience of reality. The womans gaze and the couple’s flight imply a narrative of longing and potential liberation, while the scattered objects hint at lost memories or discarded identities. Overall, the work evokes a sense of melancholy and wonder, inviting contemplation about the complexities of human existence within an enigmatic universe.
