Autoretrat caminant (2026) by Jordi Alcaraz is a mixed media work that transforms the notion of self-portrait into a subtle, material trace. Within a deep wooden frame, translucent surfaces appear punctured or stretched, forming organic, footprint-like impressions across a pale ground. The nearly monochrome palette emphasizes texture, shadow, and physical presence rather than image. Alcaraz, known for manipulating paper, glass, and space, creates a poetic tension between surface and void, solidity and fragility. In this edition of 8, the “walking self-portrait” becomes an imprint of movement—an identity suggested through absence and delicate distortion rather than direct depiction.

What is Surrealism?
Surrealism began in the 1920s as an art and literary movement with the goal of revealing the unconscious mind and unleashing the imagination by exploring unusual and dream-like imagery. Influenced by Sigmund Freud’s theories of psychoanalysis, Surrealist artists and writers sought to bring the unconscious into rational life, blurring the lines between reality and dreams. The movement aimed to challenge conventional perceptions and express the irrational aspects of the human experience.
