Abstract Horizon captures the essence of a vast landscape through a non-representational lens. San Miguel employs a vibrant palette and bold brushstrokes to convey the emotional resonance of the horizon, suggesting the interplay between earth and sky. The abstract forms, with their layered colors and dynamic movement, invite viewers to interpret the horizon as a metaphor for endless possibilities and the transient nature of time and space. The composition balances chaos and harmony, reflecting the artist’s exploration of abstract expressionism and his deep connection to nature.
