Description

This original mixed media artwork by Spanish contemporary artist Rafael Romero Masiá belongs to his striking series "Abstractas Transparencias". The piece explores the tension between abstraction and figuration, offering a poetic visual language that blends layered textures, delicate transparency, and organic forms.

Executed on a base of oil, pigments, adhesives and oil-based pencils over a prepared foam board, the background of the work functions as an autonomous abstract composition—rich in color, tactile presence, and gestural intensity. Over this chromatic field, Romero Masiá overlays a large sheet of methacrylate, drawing directly on it with wax pencil, introducing organic yet vaguely figurative elements, which subtly evoke the torso and facial profile of a woman. The translucent quality of the methacrylate introduces a dual spatiality—allowing the background to remain visible while shifting the focus to the foreground drawing, creating a sense of depth, movement and visual dialogue.

This unique abstract painting embodies Romero Masiá’s distinctive approach to figurative abstraction and his commitment to continuous material experimentation. The integration of unconventional supports such as methacrylate and reclaimed materials is a hallmark of his contemporary artistic practice, rooted in both formal rigor and emotional resonance.

The piece measures 39.4 × 29.5 × 0.4 inches (unframed) and is presented in a hand-painted wooden frame created by the artist himself, bringing the final dimensions to 46.4 × 36.6 × 1.18 inches. The work is signed on both the front and back, ensuring its authenticity.

Now available through andartworks.com, this collectible work of contemporary Spanish art is an excellent choice for collectors seeking transparent art, abstract compositions with texture, and art with depth and character. Ideal for those who wish to buy contemporary art online with a focus on innovative techniques and meaningful visual language.

Artist

Rafael Romero Masiá

Rafael Romero Masiá (Santiago de Compostela, 1953) is a Spanish contemporary artist with a solid and consistent career that places him as a prominent figure within the current art scene, both nationally and in his native Galicia. His multidisciplinary approach and ongoing creative renewal link him to both emerging art practices and the legacy of European pictorial tradition.

He holds a degree in Fine Arts from the Faculty of Santa Isabel de Hungría in Seville. He later broadened his education with landscape studies in Segovia under Professor Sánchez Corralero, and in Italy at the “Pietro Vannucci” Academy of Fine Arts in Perugia, where he specialized in painting and printmaking. Since 1982, he has worked as a tenured professor of Artistic Drawing at the School of Arts in Santiago de Compostela, sharing his knowledge with new generations of artists.

Romero Masiá is a Galician artist whose work stands out for its versatility and conceptual depth. While his main focus is on contemporary drawing and painting, he has extended his artistic language through the exploration of mixed media techniques and alternative supports, such as methacrylate, foam board, newspaper, wood, or worn fabrics. Both his materials and style vary depending on the nature of each piece: he uses oil, acrylics, raw pigments, waxes, water-soluble pencils, or adhesives, applying them with brushes, spatulas, sandpaper, or cutters—tools chosen based on the intended visual and expressive outcome.

With formal freedom as one of his trademarks, he moves confidently between figuration, abstraction, surrealism, and even hyperrealism. His creative process is always rooted in a sincere and thoughtful impulse. As he describes it, "I see painting as a game,” emphasizing the importance of experimentation, controlled chance, and enjoyment in artistic creation.

Far from bold or strident color palettes, Romero Masiá favors muted and intermediate tones—ochres, greys, earth tones—that reinforce the intimate and tactile atmosphere of his unique works. In his figurative series, he reveals himself as an exceptional draftsman, while in his abstract pieces, his focus shifts to textures, formal tension, balance, and structure.

Over the course of his career, he has held more than 35 solo exhibitions and participated in 57 group shows in Spain and France. He has received multiple painting awards, and his original artworks are part of public and private art collections at both national and international levels. His pieces can be found in museums, cultural institutions, and in the hands of contemporary art collectors around the world.

His artistic vision—deeply honest and constantly evolving—resonates with audiences who value authenticity, experimentation, and technical excellence in contemporary art.
