About the Item

Original oil painting depicting two bubble gum balloons through the symbolic transformation of everyday objects, exploring visual ambiguity, desire and humor within contemporary Pop Surrealism. Globo de Sal II belongs to María Magán Lampón’s Chicles series, a body of work that investigates how ordinary objects acquire new meanings when displaced from their habitual context. Through playful visual associations, the artist constructs metaphors that question cultural perceptions of pleasure, attraction and taste, inviting viewers to move beyond immediate recognition. Inspired by prophylactic forms that are pictorially reinterpreted as bubble gum balloons, the painting develops a subtle dialogue between two suspended volumes. Their translucent surfaces, soft reflections and delicate tonal transitions become the true protagonists of the composition, transforming objects commonly associated with rejection after use into carefully observed studies of light, transparency and form. Rather than relying on explicit provocation, María Magán employs humor and visual ambiguity as conceptual strategies. The familiar object gradually loses its original function and enters a symbolic territory where resemblance generates new meanings. The image oscillates between still life, abstraction and illusion, encouraging viewers to question the mechanisms through which beauty, desire and aversion are culturally constructed. Executed in oil on canvas, the work demonstrates the artist's sustained interest in colour, transparency, reflections and material perception. Against the deep black background, the floating forms acquire an almost sculptural presence, emphasizing both their physical delicacy and their conceptual ambiguity. The restrained composition reinforces the painting's quiet tension while allowing every subtle variation of light to emerge with remarkable precision. Globo de Sal II forms part of María Magán’s broader investigation into visual metaphor and the transformation of everyday objects through painting, where play becomes a tool for generating unexpected symbolic relationships.
