Cor Sacratissimum II

A red heart emerges from a dark, densely worked field in Cor Sacratissimum II. A single eye interrupts the painted mass, while a narrow yellow passage near the upper edge introduces a sharp point of luminosity. The image remains frontal and concentrated, with the visible weave of the canvas carrying through the layered acrylic surface. In the Ex-votos series, Lima condenses the image into a few charged elements, drawing on the economy and directness of votive painting while allowing recognition to remain partial and unstable.
