    My new painting: “There’s no other option” The central part that shows us the young man’s face fading away was made in 2023 and this year (2025) I used that part to create this painting. This painting is another example of Suprapictorialism, where the images have irregular frames that do not always limit or circumscribe,…

    This painting is another example of Suprapictorialism, where the image overflows the work and the wall (with its color and texture) participates in the visual meaning of the image.

    I’ve finished my painting “Trade War,” an example of Suprapictorialist art (acrylic on canvas, 2025). It has taken on new meaning these days with the tariff increases, which provoke uncertainty, just as the distortions and holes in the canvas express it visually. We can also observe a confrontation, where two poles (with distinct appearances and…

    In 2015, when I was studying art, I made my first decent watercolor (several teachers and students thought it was interesting), but at the same time, I had, have, and will always have an inner urge to experiment and try to build some kind of style I could call my own. Suprapictorialism is my first…

    Title: “Anomie”. Technique: Acrylic on Canvas. Dimensions: 82 x 44 centimeters. Author: Fred AMA. Year: 2024.  Is everything possible or impossible without rules? My latest work gives you some answers. The lack of boundaries, that is, the irregular frames, on the one hand, expand the image, but they can also disorient the viewer. The raw union of the canvas with the wall (both at…
