The artwork, named “Ña Diáfana,” was created by the artist Xul Solar in 1923. It belongs to the Surrealism art movement and is characterized as figurative in genre.
“Ña Diáfana” showcases a surreal and abstract human figure, adorned with vivid colors and geometric forms that convey a sense of transparency and intricacy. The figure’s body appears to be segmented with an overlay of various shapes and lines, creating a multi-dimensional effect. The expressive use of color, from warm tones of orange and brown to muted shades of green and purple, adds depth and complexity to the piece. The figure’s face, partially obscured by what seem to be goggles, along with the dynamic positioning of the arms and the presence of cryptic symbols, enhances the surreal and enigmatic quality of the artwork. The composition is thoughtful and deliberate, reflecting Xul Solar’s unique contribution to the Surrealist movement.
