This original artwork, titled "nombre no válido 1", is part of Natasha Lelenco’s "nombre no válido" series, crafted on a tondo of reclaimed cork wood from tree cuttings in Galicia. The piece features a shy face emoticon, gently smiling through a composition of green leaves and small blue flowers, painted in acrylic. The natural motifs of the leaves and flowers contrast with the simplicity of the emoticon, creating a balance between the organic and the abstract. The subtle expression of satisfaction or contentment, often associated with shyness or modest happiness, is integrated into the lush, nature-inspired design, giving the piece both visual and emotional depth. The sculptural quality of the artwork is emphasized by the irregular shape of the cork wood, painted with bright yellow and blue accents that enhance its natural texture. The emoticon, formed by the arrangement of leaves, sits harmoniously within the green landscape, symbolizing a gentle connection between human emotion and the natural world. The overall composition invites reflection on the blending of modern digital symbols with organic forms, exploring the relationship between nature, technology, and emotion. Natasha Lelenco’s use of acrylic paint on cork wood allows for sharp detailing and vibrant color contrasts, with the layers of leaves carefully rendered to create a sense of depth and texture. This artwork is part of a broader exploration of how simplified digital expressions, like emoticons, have become part of everyday communication. By merging these symbols with elements of nature, Lelenco invites viewers to contemplate the evolving language of emotions and how it interacts with the natural world.
