Mar de Isla

The exhibition "Sea of Island" by artist Nacho González Oramas presents a unique perspective on Gran Canaria through a collection of black and white photographs printed on textured aluminum. The show invites viewers to discover the presence of the sea beyond the coast, evoking it within the island from visual and metaphorical perspectives. Ravines, mountains, and geological formations transform into echoes of the ocean, revealing the intimate relationship between the insular territory and the sea that gives it meaning.

González Oramas' work is characterized by its aesthetic sensitivity and connection to the Canarian landscape. As noted by Andrea Cabrera Kñallinsky, the artist is a goldsmith of the image who champions beauty as a tool for well-being and reflection. The photographs, stripped of color and filled with expressive power, offer emotional testimonies of the territory, fostering respect and care for a natural heritage essential to the identity of those who inhabit the islands. "Sea of Island" thus becomes an invitation to contemplate the landscapes of Gran Canaria from a new perspective.
