Tablina 4Metal, Fabric & Ash Art - Mixed Media on Wood Panel - Xabier Liz

Unique artwork on wood 11.5x15 cm with metal, fabric, pigmented ash and pumice stone. Contemporary mixed media art. Emotional archaeology.

The work paints itself before the viewer's eyes, revealing layers of memory embedded in the materials. Ash—residue that is both end and beginning—acts as a binding element between the metallic coldness and the organic warmth of fabric, while pumice stone adds tactile topography to this interior landscape.

Rooted in the European post-war material informalism tradition of "matter upon matter" that breaks the two-dimensional plane, this piece connects with masters like Tàpies, Millares, and Dubuffet through techniques of layering and subtraction.

Influenced by the teachings of Leopoldo Nóvoa and traditional African art, Xabier Liz explores emotional archaeology through materials that carry their own history and significance.
