About This Work
In *CANTO XXVIII–XXIX. The Sowers*, Jordi Diaz Alama extends his contemporary dialogue with canonical literature, translating epic narrative into a psychologically charged painterly field. Executed with precise draftsmanship and layered, expressive brushwork, the composition balances classical figuration with a modern sense of fracture and urgency—forms emerging and dissolving through glazes, tonal contrasts, and assertive mark-making. Diaz Alama’s technique evokes the discipline of Old Master painting while embracing the cinematic intensity of current figurative practice. The theme of sowing resonates as both allegory and cultural critique: an image of labour, consequence, and renewal that speaks to ecological anxiety and social cycles of cause and effect. A compelling work for collectors of contemporary figurative painting.
