Tomás Sánchez captures his spiritual homeland in a new limited edition print of a defining work.

Pensamiento-nube, originally painted in 2008, is a quintessential example of the hyperreal landscapes which have made Tomás one of the most important living Cuban artists. Inspired by the Romantics and his daily meditation practice, he creates incredibly detailed tropical scenes that encompass the physical wonder of the natural world and its immense spiritual power.

In this artwork, a small figure, possibly the artist himself, observes a lush canopy and vast sky – a moment where observation becomes meditation, as the title Thought - Cloud suggests.

This archival pigment print faithfully translates the luminous detail and meditative atmosphere of the original painting.

The cloud is a thought entering a meditative state. It doesn’t interrupt that state; you simply contemplate the thought, just as you would contemplate a cloud drifting by and dissolving.

Part of Volumen Uno in the 80s, a movement that resisted the heavily censored Cuban art of the time, he has since received international recognition, with auction prices over USD 600,000. Inspired by the Romantics and his daily meditation practice, Tomás paints the wild beauty of his homeland, as well as harrowing panoramic views of garbage dumps. The works are incredibly detailed with a lush tropical palette, encompassing the physical wonder of the natural world, its immense spiritual power, and humankind's tendency to destroy it. Steeped in allegory, Tomás's art reinterprets traditional modes of painting to create an uncanny paradise that is at once hopeful and threatening.
