About the Item
Paintings from "Tolina" series of works are inspired by the imagination of the artist’s five-year-old son, who created a constantly shifting city — a refuge of hope in turbulent times. Amílcar Rivera M.’s works depict silent figures with closed eyes, deeply immersed within themselves: inhabitants of this utopian space. Tolina reflects the human need to imagine a better place and to believe in the possibility of change.
Each figure in his paintings appears as an isolated presence in a timeless, undefined space, inviting the viewer to look closer, to study its face and features. Suspended in vast, colour-soaked planes, the figures seem to be waiting, carefully positioned by the artist on the canvas. Yet they resemble fragile toy-like characters, wandering from one painting to another — without beginning or end.
Observing Rivera’s works, one inevitably identifies with these Kafkaesque characters, compelled to re-examine the authenticity of one’s own existence.
The exhibition title also carries a scientific resonance: “tholins” are complex organic molecules found in the atmosphere of Saturn’s moon Titan. This dual meaning symbolises the connection between play and reality, between intimacy and universal experience.
This painting is in excellent condition, stretched on wooden stretcher bars. It is signed by the artist and includes a Certificate of Authenticity issued by the gallery.
It will be exhibited at the artists solo show from 4th of September to 8th of November 2025

Contemporary Minimalist Black White Oil Painting on Canvas, Couple in Seaside
Located in Vilnius, Vilniaus apskr.
Based on fragments of authentic photographs and notes, Maja creates a reconstruction of a past she never experienced. It is a young artist's visual interpretation of someone else's memory. She reflects on the reliability of images and a melancholic nostalgia — “a longing to return to a place I have never been.” The artist raises questions about the possibilities of conveying memory and the relationship between image and truth, constructing a visual interpretation of a time period she never knew through her paintings.
