A captivating work by Miquel Barceló, Ephemeral Flame embodies his signature experimentation with texture, materiality, and abstraction. The piece presents a powerful meditation on transformation and impermanence—depicting a matchstick in various states of ignition and decay. The bold contrast of white and red against the dark background enhances the dynamic movement of the composition, evoking themes of energy, destruction, and renewal.

Barceló’s expressive mark-making and gestural strokes imbue this piece with raw intensity, inviting the viewer into a moment of fleeting brilliance. An exceptional work that showcases the artist’s mastery of material and concept.
