In this watercolor, Lluís Cots explores the world of family relationships from an expressionist perspective, transforming the figurative subject into a composition of intense chromatic energy. The spontaneous brushstrokes and overlapping colors create a visual tapestry in which forms seem to emerge and fade away. The work reflects the artist’s interest in depicting human bonds and their emotional complexity through a language that combines the strength of gesture with the delicacy of transparency.

Active since the early 1970s, Lluís Cots has developed a career centered on the exploration of material, gesture, and color. He exhibited early on at the Crecelius Gallery in Tarragona, the Da Barra and Subex galleries in Barcelona, and later at the Maeght Gallery in Barcelona (1984), the Sala Cajamadrid (1988), and the Lina Davidov Gallery in Paris (1999). His work has also been featured in exhibitions in Berlin and other European venues.
