The artwork named “Mediterranean Plant,” created by Jorge Castillo in 2010, utilizes acrylic on canvas as its medium. It belongs to the art movement of Surrealism and is classified under the genre of still life. The dimensions of the artwork are 80 x 40 cm.
The composition of the artwork features a surreal depiction of plant life, expressed through a skillful blend of abstract and representational elements. Dominated by a palette that includes shades of blue, red, and beige, the central figure of the artwork appears to be a thistle-like plant. The plant is rendered in an ethereal, almost dreamlike manner, with delicate, spindly branches and textured, spherical flower heads. Surrounding the plant are abstract shapes and forms that contribute to the mystical and other-worldly ambiance of the piece. The intricate interplay of colors and forms evokes a sense of depth and contemplation, characteristic of the Surrealist movement.
