José María Sicilia is a prominent Spanish painter who emerged as a leader of the 1980s new Spanish painting movement. Renowned for encasing delicate botanical flowers, oriental silks, and acoustic waveforms beneath luminous, translucent layers of white beeswax, Sicilia's work meditates on fragility, natural ephemerality, and sensory memory.
