PAULA'S BICYCLES - THE "V" SERIES
Paula's Bicycles is a series of paintings that combines collage and acrylic on canvas.
Each painting features the black shadow of a bicycle superimposed on a different background or landscape.
The black bikes represent sustainability and is meant to convey the idea that bikes should be a daily and widely used object, privileged above others.
Paula proposes a new format (rhombus) and a new orientation of the canvas, symbolizing a new attitude of integrating ourselves in the fight against climate change.
The striking and original backgrounds represent well-known landmarks such as the Egyptian pyramids, the Belém Tower in Lisbon, and the canals of Amsterdam, the city of bikes.
Paula's Bicycles can be displayed and sold individually or as an endless mosaic or group of bicycles.
Each rhombus measures 100 x 100 cm, with diagonals measuring 141 cm in both directions.
A complete mosaic with all 11 canvases measures just over 565 x 283 cm.
