In this contemporary still life, Jaime Velázquez transforms a pair of everyday snacks into a vivid meditation on consumer culture and modern symbolism. Applying the meticulous detail reminiscent of Old Master oil painting while embracing the bold immediacy of acrylic, he elevates a bag of Doritos and a bottle of Coke to the level of iconic subjects. Luminous colors, glossy surfaces, and layered textures blur the boundary between realism and pop abstraction, infusing these familiar objects with surprising depth and energy. Through this fusion of classical technique and urban freshness, Velázquez turns a casual, mass-produced duo into a striking reflection on the visual language of our time.
