EL SUEÑO DE LA RAZÓN PRODUCE MONSTRUOS

Oil on canvas, 2024
162 x 130 cm

Painting made for the series Homage to Goya by the artist Romulo Royo, which revolves around the aesthetic and thematic similarities that the Aragonese artists share despite the centuries that separate them.

Published inside the book by author Romulo Royo: The Alchemy of Dreams and Eternity, page 201. Published in English by The Guide Artists.

Both in his paintings and in his engravings, Goya’s universe is impregnated with the magical and mysterious world of witches, just as, from another perspective, it constantly appears in the Royo’s work. While in Goya this esoteric world is shown anchored to terrifying female characters, in the Royo’s trajectory they appear fusing this occult world with an enigmatic beauty. But the ancestral power of the feminine world emerges and shows itself equally vehement in their works through the brushstrokes in both sides, thus linking the mystery through the centuries.
