VIMOPAR - HUMBABA sin melena, XXL.

VMP is a Spanish visual artist, Doctor of Art and Research, whose practice combines contemporary figurative painting with experimentation in cinema and animation. Numerous awards and selections underpin a consolidated and recognized artistic career. This original piece measuring 130 × 101 cm, created in 2026, is a mythological study of Humbaba. In Sumerian and Akkadian mythology, Humbaba was a giant, guardian and lord of the cedar forest in the “Land of the Living,” where the gods dwelt. In this work he is depicted as a Humbaba without a mane and without aggressive teeth: a dreaming child Humbaba. It is proposed that the viewer confront the painting as an object with its own internal laws, rather than seeking behind it a confession, a trauma, or a personal story. It is not denied that the viewer may read metaphors, but it is rejected that the practice be permeated by the obligation to produce them. The interest does not lie in encoding a hidden world, but in explicitly organizing the visible world. This painting is oil on premium cotton. The canvas is 100% raw cotton, primed by the artist with Lefranc & Bourgeois gesso. Dimensions: 130 × 101 cm (surface to be framed), with extra canvas to facilitate handling. All materials used are of the highest quality. The process begins with acrylic and culminates with glazes of Liquin and oil; Note: the brushstrokes that appear in the photos with MOCKUP (the framed ones) have some AI involvement. To assess the painting’s real pictorial treatment, it’s important to look closely at the images that do not include mockups. The result is very satisfactory and I am particularly happy with it. Shipping is carried out ONLY with the canvas rolled, protected with bubble wrap and cardboard or a rigid support, ensuring its proper conservation during transport.
