Lime – A Circular Field of Energy and Connection
“Lime” (2022) by Rosana Auqué is a work that exists as both a visual presence and an energetic field. Painted in acrylic on a circular canvas of 100 cm in diameter, the piece invites the viewer into a continuous movement without edges or interruptions. The absence of corners becomes essential: there is no beginning, no end, only flow.
The color—vibrant, alive, almost pulsating—evokes a state that is both emotional and physical. It is not simply green; it is a frequency. A tone that suggests vitality, expansion, and an openness to experience. In this sense, “Lime” operates less as an image and more as a condition.
The Connection Collection and the Origin of Movement
“Lime” belongs to the “Connection” body of work, first presented in Santa Marta, Colombia, the artist’s hometown. This context is not anecdotal—it is foundational. The series emerges from an intuitive understanding of how energy moves between beings, how invisible forces link individuals within what we call life or universe.
In “Lime,” this idea becomes visual through waves that seem to echo across the surface. These are not literal waves, but gestures—repetitions that suggest continuity, resonance, and presence. Each movement responds to another, forming a subtle dialogue across the canvas.
A Language of Color and Presence
The intensity of the lime tone creates a space that feels immediate. There is no distance between the viewer and the painting. Instead, the work draws you in, almost physically, into its chromatic field.
Color as Experience
Rather than describing an object, the painting proposes an experience. The color becomes a medium through which perception is altered. It invites stillness, but also awareness—an attention to what is happening in the present moment.
Circular Form as Continuity
The circular format reinforces the conceptual framework of connection. Without edges, the composition cannot be contained. It extends beyond itself, suggesting that what we see is only a fragment of something larger, something ongoing.
Presence, Energy, and the Contemporary Condition
“Lime” reflects a central question within Rosana Auqué’s practice: how can painting make visible what is intangible? The work does not attempt to define connection—it allows it to be felt.
In a contemporary context where fragmentation often dominates, this piece proposes an alternative: a return to unity, to flow, to the awareness that everything is already in relation.
