*APC ART is pleased to present “The Weight of the Wild” — an exceptional and hauntingly beautiful original oil painting by internationally acclaimed contemporary artist Tania Marmolejo.*

*Executed in oil on linen in 2023, this monumental unique painting measures an impressive 78” x 56” and is signed en verso by the artist; “MARM 2023001.”*

*Provenance includes Kutlesa Gallery, Switzerland and an important private collection in California, USA.*

*Executed by the artist at her studio in 2023, “The Weight of the Wild” is an extraordinary example of Marmolejo’s unmistakable visual language — dreamlike, emotional and psychologically charged.*

*Marmolejo has rapidly become one of the most sought after contemporary figurative painters of her generation, celebrated internationally for her large eyed female subjects, ethereal palettes and deeply emotional compositions.*

*Her works blend elements of surrealism, portraiture and symbolism while simultaneously maintaining an unmistakable softness and femininity unique to the artist.*

*In “The Weight of the Wild,” the artist presents an arresting female figure enveloped by an almost celestial crown of foliage rendered in shimmering jewel tones, soft lavenders, greens and blues.*

*The work possesses an incredible sense of stillness, vulnerability and emotional depth.*

*The scale of the painting is absolutely breathtaking in person.*

*At nearly 6.5 feet tall, this is a true statement piece that will undoubtedly become the centerpiece of any important collection or interior.*

*The layering, depth and luminosity achieved through Marmolejo’s oil technique is extraordinary in person and impossible to fully capture photographically.*

*The subtle transitions of color, softness of the facial features and intricate detailing throughout the foliage create an almost dreamlike atmosphere.*

*Works of this scale and quality by Tania Marmolejo are becoming increasingly difficult to acquire as the artist’s international demand continues to rise dramatically.*

*This is an exceptional opportunity to acquire a truly important original work by one of the most exciting and collected contemporary figurative painters working today.*

*The work is in excellent condition.*

*We are pleased to offer archival framing, crating, white glove delivery and installation services throughout the continental United States.*

*Please feel free to inquire regarding additional important contemporary paintings and original works currently available through APC ART.*
