Artwork location: Spain

This unique round artwork is part of Natasha Lelenco's series. Created on a meticulously treated pinewood panel with a 26 cm diameter and 2 cm thickness, it is designed as both a pictorial and sculptural piece, ready to be displayed individually or as part of a larger composition. The inscription around the portrait reads: (Spanish), which translates to The text, painted in a bold, hand-drawn style, frames a finely detailed portrait of an older individual, their gaze set towards the horizon. Their features are rendered in rich blue-green hues, contrasting against the warm yellow background, creating a visually striking interplay of color. The meticulous brushwork in the textured curls and subtle skin variations adds depth, reinforcing the idea of history, movement, and identity.

Lelenco's series, now composed of over 200 unique pieces, is an evolving reflection on migration, belonging, and displacement. The project plays with humor and personal narratives, yet also captures the realities and emotions of those who navigate the complex dynamics of identity in new territories. Each work explores the nuances of portraiture, ranging from hyperrealism to expressive, urban-inspired interpretations. The arbitrary pricing of each piece subtly questions societal perceptions of value, both in art and human existence, exposing the disparities tied to origin, privilege, and economic status. This piece, like the entire series, challenges the viewer to reconsider notions of otherness and the fluidity of belonging.

Designed to function both as a standalone artwork or in combination with multiple panels from the same series, these pieces seamlessly integrate into a variety of spaces. Beyond the artist's intended message, their striking presence has captured the interest of high-end interior design firms, which have incorporated pieces into sophisticated projects. For multiple acquisitions, we offer special discounts. The artist also accepts commissions tailored to the specific needs of your space. Please feel free to contact us for further details.

Presentation

Natasha Lelenco (b. 1983, Moldova) is a contemporary artist based in Spain, known for her figurative and symbolic work exploring themes of identity, migration, and the intersection between nature and human representation.

Graduated in Fine Arts from the University of Cluj-Napoca (Romania) and with additional studies in Art History at the UNED (Spain), Lelenco has been dedicated to her professional artistic career since 2017. Her work is often developed in series, where format and concept are intrinsically linked, incorporating repetition as a fundamental element of her artistic language.

Lelenco's paintings blend portraiture with organic and anthropomorphic forms, addressing questions of belonging, cultural memory, and human displacement. Series like and reflect on the fluid nature of identity and value, while delves into the illusion of individuality and the patterns that define us. Her meticulous technique, often using acrylic on wood or canvas, is complemented by experimental approaches such as mixed media and text-based interventions.

Lelenco's pieces are part of private collections worldwide.
