2087 – Contemporary Abstract Painting by Maria Paola Coda

“2087” is a contemporary abstract painting by Maria Paola Coda, built upon a palette of earthy tones, ochres, and dark hues that evoke the force of nature and the passage of time. The pictorial surface, created through successive layers and glazes, generates a sense of atmospheric density, as if the canvas itself were breathing memory, silence, and matter.

In this work, the artist explores the tension between light and shadow, between what is visible and what remains hidden. The composition does not depict a literal landscape, yet it suggests inner horizons, suspended territories where the gaze pauses and finds a contemplative space. The chromatic contrasts, rather than abrupt, are integrated into a harmonious flow that conveys serenity, depth, and a sense of continuous transformation.

“2087” embodies Maria Paola Coda’s ongoing artistic research into painting as a universal language. Through abstraction, she delves into the essential: the trace of color, texture as memory, and matter as a vehicle for timeless emotions.

A work of strong symbolic resonance, “2087” is situated within the realm of contemporary abstract art, connecting with the tradition of painting as a spiritual space, while offering a contemporary perspective that fuses materiality with emotion. With this piece, Coda reaffirms her ability to transform painting into an open space, both intimate and universal at the same time.
