Desde el templo (From the Temple)

The Rebirth of Form: Palingenesia Collection Inspired by the concept of regeneration or new birth, “Desde el templo (From the Temple)” places us at a spiritual viewpoint. The hemp support acts as an archaeological skin upon which oil is deposited to create forms suggesting arches, domes, and structures of faith. The artwork is a dialogue between the solidity of the wall and the lightness of abstract thought.

Color and Symbolism Measuring 100 x 100 cm, the piece stands out for its luminosity. Yellows and golds emerge from the background like light filtered through invisible stained glass, while gestural lines in blue define the structure of a temple that is not physical, but mental. The hemp collage adds a three-dimensionality that invites the viewer to journey across the surface with their gaze, discovering the richness of organic materials.

Collector Value As part of the Palingenesia collection, this work represents Betancourt’s technical evolution toward a deeper synthesis between support and pigment. It is an investment in high-level contemporary art, ideal for spaces seeking an artwork with historical and spiritual weight, as well as an unmatched material presence.
