Jordi Alcaraz’s Autoretrat somiant (2026) is a mixed media work that exemplifies the artist’s ongoing investigation into material tension, absence, and spatial paradox. Produced in an edition of five and measuring 64 x 40 x 35 cm, the piece presents an organic, flesh-toned form confined within a transparent acrylic vitrine. The amorphous mass appears compressed against the inner wall, subtly deforming the rigid geometry of its enclosure. This interplay between fragile, malleable matter and the precise, minimalist box creates a visual dialogue about containment and resistance. Alcaraz often explores the boundaries between object and void, solidity and illusion; here, the sculpture suggests a body caught between presence and erasure, emphasizing the poetic friction between confinement and expansion.

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.
